Recent attention has appropriately focused on biofilm development on the catheter surface because biofilm has important implications for the pathogenesis, treatment, and prevention of catheter ...

The first drawn sample contains planktonic bacteria shed from the biofilm within the static lock solution left to dwell in the catheter. The shear effect on biofilm created by aspiration will also ...

In medical settings, biofilms make infections harder to treat when they form protective shields for bacteria on devices like catheters and implants. UC Riverside scientists have now discovered a ...
