Bacterial Metabolism During Biofilm Growth Investigated by 13C Tracing
This study investigated the metabolism of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 during its biofilm development via microscopy imaging, gene expression analysis, and 13C-labeling. First, dynamic labeling was employed to investigate glucose utilization rate in fresh biofilms (thickness 40∼60 micrometer). The la...
