Treatment of dairy wastes with a microbial anode formed from garden compost [PDF]
, 2010 Garden compost has already been identified as a source of efficient electro-active (EA) biofilms. The work described here consisted of lixiviating the compost and then using the leachate as a microbial source.

The relationship between epilithic biofilm stability and its associated meiofauna under two patterns of flood disturbance [PDF]
, 2012 Habitat stability is an important driver of ecological community composition and development. River epilithic biofilms are particularly unstable habitats for the establishment of benthic communities because they are regularly disturbed by floods. Our aim

From a thin film model for passive suspensions towards the description of osmotic biofilm spreading
, 2016 Biofilms are ubiquitous macro-colonies of bacteria that develop at various interfaces (solid-liquid, solid-gas or liquid-gas). The formation of biofilms starts with the attachment of individual bacteria to an interface, where they proliferate and produce

Association between genotypic diversity and biofilm production in group B Streptococcus [PDF]
, 2016 Background: Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is a leading cause of sepsis and meningitis and an important factor in premature and stillbirths. Biofilm production has been suggested to be important for GBS pathogenesis alongside many other elements ...
