Micro-Patterned Surfaces That Exploit Stigmergy to Inhibit Biofilm Expansion
Twitching motility is a mode of surface translocation that is mediated by the extension and retraction of type IV pili and which, depending on the conditions, enables migration of individual cells or can manifest as a complex multicellular collective behavior that leads to biofilm expansion. When tw...
