• Mobilization of phosphorus from iron ore by the bacterium Burkholderia caribensis FeGL03 (2009, background): “These structures are used by bacteria to strongly attach to surfaces during initial and intermediate stages of surface colonization (Davey and O‘Toole, 2000; Dunne, 2002).”
• Linkage between crustacean zooplankton and aquatic bacteria (2010, background): “For example, bacteria attached to the surface of a zooplankter may experience a changing hydrodynamic environment due to the host’s movement (Lawrence & Caldwell 1987) and must also adapt to the specific surface property (Dunne 2002).”
• Complicated Catheter-Associated Urinary Tract Infections Due to Escherichia coli and Proteus mirabilis (2008, background): “As IBCs mature, around 6 to 8 h after inoculation of the murine bladder (175), they more closely resemble classical biofilm structures (88), where the bacterial doubling time is increased (from approximately 30 to 60 min) and the bacterial cell length is shortened (0.”
• Biofilms: At the Interface between Biophysics and Microbiology (2006, background): “The ability to resist antimicrobial agents is of particular concern to both the medical and food processing communities, since once a biofilm has been established on a surface, it becomes exceedingly difficult to completely remediate the film [2, 26–34].”
• Multifunctional Coatings to Simultaneously Promote Osseointegration and Prevent Infection of Orthopaedic Implants (2016, neutral): “[109-112] Increasing the dose or duration of a systemic anti biotic may be effective, but host toxicity concerns become paramount.”
• Beyond Risk: Bacterial Biofilms and Their Regulating Approaches (2020, background): “If the attractive forces are greater than the repulsive forces, the bacteria will attach to the surface and vice versa (Dunne, 2002; Carniello et al., 2018).”
• Biofilm formation and the food industry, a focus on the bacterial outer surface (2010, background): “Biofilm formation depends on an interaction between three main components: the bacterial cells, the attachment surface and the surrounding medium (Davey and O’Toole 2000; Donlan 2002; Dunne 2002; Stoodley et al. 2002).”
• Biofilm Formation in Food Processing Environments is Still Poorly Understood and Controlled (2014, background): “microorganisms are not dislodged by gentle rinsing [29].”
• A microfluidic chip and its use in characterising the particle-scale behaviour of microbial-induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) (2018, background): “Previous research indicates that bacteria tend to secrete adhesive structures such as flagella, pili, exopolysaccharides, and other matrix components to attach to the solid surface and live at the soild-liquid interface (Dunne, 2002).”
• Biofilms: Microbial Cities of Scientific Significance (2014, background): “Primary attachment / reversible attachment: Though the flagellar motility enables the bacteria to overcome the repulsive effects of the hydrodynamic and electrostatic forces, the preliminary bacterial adhesion relies on the physiochemical and electrostatic interaction between the bacteria and the su”
