The EPS matrix: the “house of biofilm cells”
HC Flemming, TR Neu, DJ Wozniak - Journal of bacteriology, 2007 - Am Soc Microbiol
If biofilms can be metaphorically called a “city of microbes”(24), the EPS represent the
“house of the biofilm cells.” The EPS determine the immediate conditions of life of biofilm …
