Characterization of biofilm-like structures formed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa in a synthetic mucus medium
BACKGROUND: The accumulation of thick stagnant mucus provides a suitable environment for the growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus within the lung alveoli of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. These infections cause significant lung damage, leading to respiratory failure and death....
