Effect of inoculum size and antibiotics on bacterial traveling bands in a thin microchannel defined by optical adhesive
Abstract Phenotypic diversity in bacterial flagella-induced motility leads to complex collective swimming patterns, appearing as traveling bands with transient locally enhanced cell densities. Traveling bands are known to be a bacterial chemotactic response to self-generated nutrient gradients durin...
