Abstract The Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria are attributable to matrix-enclosed
aggregates known as biofilms. Biofilms are root cause of industrial biofouling and …

Bacteria form multicellular biofilm communities on most surfaces. Genetic analysis of biofilm
formation has led to the proposal that extracellular signals and quorum-sensing regulatory …

Bacteria that attach to surface aggregate in a hydrated polymeric matrix of their own
synthesis to form biofilms. These represent microbial societies with their own defense and …

Biofilms are structured communities of bacteria, which are adhered to a surface and
embedded in a self-produced matrix of extracellular polymeric substances. Since biofilms …

Biofilms are association of microorganisms that attach to each other to a surface enclosed in
a self-generated extracellular matrix. Virtually (99.9%) all microorganisms have the …

Various bacterial species, previously known as extracellular pathogens, can reside inside
different host cells by adapting to intracellular modes by forming microbial aggregates with …

Bacteria are social creatures that are able to interact and coordinate behaviors with each
other in a multitude of ways. The study of such group behaviors in microbes was coined …

Bacterial cells are most often found in the form of multicellular aggregates commonly
referred to as biofilms. Biofilms offer their member cells several benefits, such as resistance …

Microbes often construct and live within surface-associated multicellular communities known
as biofilms. The precise structure, chemistry and physiology of the biofilm all vary with the …

The term biofilm is used to denote a polymer-encased community of microbes which
accumulates at a surface. Biofilms are responsible for a number of diseases of man and …
