Fungal Mechanobiology: High Shear Forces Increase Rhizopus Virulence

BACKGROUND: It has been observed in both civilian and military populations that high-energy events, such as tornados and blast injuries, have been associated with mucormycosis in otherwise immunocompetent patients. However, the effects of high shear force directly on fungal biology have not been exp...
