Nanostructured Surfaces - joint with Brown University
INV-14052 Background The attachment of bacteria to surfaces, sometimes referred to as biofilm formation, often occurs in two steps. The first step is the initial attachment of the bacteria to the surface and the second is a cell-to-cell proliferation to form multilayered bacterial clusters. The initial attachment of the bacteria to the surface is...
