Modeling Multiscale Architecture of Biofilm Extracellular Matrix and Its Role in Oxygen Transport

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Conceptual ‘resistance‐in‐series' model using cell‐capsule approach is introduced to investigate oxygen transport in the extracellular matrix. Bacterial capsule as a separate, distinct feature from the bulk EPS is the main focus of our present study. ABSTRACT The extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) matrix of microbial biofilms exhibits a complex ...
