Biofilm clue opens route to anti-infection treatments (IMAGE)
Caption
BatR contributes to biofilm architecture (purple) on pig lung tissue (pink). Images are shown here for stained tissues treated with Ciprofloxacin. Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm forms a sponge-like structure covered by a thick layer of matrix. Both structures are disrupted in the batR mutant biofilm.
