Immune Responses to Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilm Infections
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a key pathogen of chronic infections in the lungs of cystic fibrosis patients and in patients suffering from chronic wounds of diverse etiology. In these infections the bacteria congregate in biofilms and cannot be eradicated by

Clinical Impact of Antibiotics for the Treatment of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilm Infections
Bacterial biofilms are highly recalcitrant to antibiotic therapies due to multiple tolerance mechanisms. The involvement of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in a wide range of biofilm-related infections often leads to treatment failures.
