Formation and post-formation dynamics of bacterial biofilm streamers as highly viscous liquid jets

It has been recently reported that in presence of low Reynolds number (Re ≪ 1) transport, preformed bacterial biofilms, several hours after their formation, may degenerate in form of filamentous structures, known as streamers. In this work, we explain that such streamers form as the highly viscous l...
