Co-Operative Biofilm Interactions between <i>Aspergillus fumigatus</i> and <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> through Secreted Galactosaminogalactan Exopolysaccharide

Co-Operative Biofilm Interactions between <i>Aspergillus fumigatus</i> and <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> through Secreted Galactosaminogalactan Exopolysaccharide

The mold <i>Aspergillus fumigatus</i> and bacterium <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> form biofilms in the airways of individuals with cystic fibrosis. Biofilm formation by <i>A. fumigatus</i> depends on the self-produced cationic exopolysaccharide galactosaminogalact...
