Shear force enhances adhesion of Pseudomonas aeruginosa by counteracting pilus-driven surface departure

Fluid flow is thought to prevent bacterial adhesion, but some bacteria use adhesins with catch bond properties to enhance adhesion under high shear forces. However, many studies on bacterial adhesion either neglect the influence of shear force or use shear forces that are not typically found in natu...
