Probing the internal micromechanical properties of Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms by Brillouin imaging

Biofilms are organised aggregates of bacteria that adhere to each other or surfaces. The matrix of extracellular polymeric substances that holds the cells together provides the mechanical stability of the biofilm. In this study, we have applied Brillouin microscopy, a technique that is capable of me...
