The role of surface adhesion on the macroscopic wrinkling of biofilms
S. Geisel, E. Secchi, J. Vermant
This study investigates how surface adhesion affects biofilm wrinkling in Pseudomonas aeruginosa under flow, showing mechanical buckling leads to channel formation that enhances biofilm volume and bacterial movement.
