Effect of shear stress and growth conditions on detachment and physical properties of biofilms

Detachment is one of the major processes determining the physical structure and microbial functionalities of biofilms. To predict detachment, it is necessary to take the mechanical properties of the biofilm and the effect of both hydrodynamic and growth conditions into account. In this work, experim...
