Planktonic and Biofilm-Associated <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> and <i>Staphylococcus epidermidis</i> Elicit Differential Human Peripheral Blood Cell Responses

Planktonic and Biofilm-Associated <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> and <i>Staphylococcus epidermidis</i> Elicit Differential Human Peripheral Blood Cell Responses

Despite the considerable progress made in recent years, our understanding of the human immune response to microbial biofilms is still poor. The aim of the present study was to compare the in vitro response of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) to biofilms and planktonic cells of <i&g...
