A systematic upscaling of nonlinear chemical uptake within a biofilm

When modelling transport of a chemical species to a colony of bacteria in a biofilm, it is computationally expensive4 to treat each bacterium even as a point sink, let alone to capture the finite nature of each bacterium. Instead, models tend to5 treat the bacterial and extracellular matrix domains as...
