• Biofilm Dispersal: Mechanisms, Clinical Implications, and Potential Therapeutic Uses (2010, background): “Sloughing dispersal may be an important factor in the transmission of some environmental pathogens, because sloughing can result in the detachment of a sufficient number of cells for an infective dose that is not typically found in bulk fluid (Hall-Stoodley and Stoodley, 2005).”
