Polymorphonuclear Leukocytes or Hydrogen Peroxide Enhance Biofilm Development of Mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa by Qi Tan, Qing Ai, Qi Xu, Fang Li, Jialin Yu

“…PMNs are the main leucocytes in the CF sputum of patients who are infected with P. aeruginosa, which usually forms biofilms. Here, we report that PMNs or H2O2 can promote biofilm formation by mucoid P. aeruginosa FRD1 with the use of the hanging-peg method. …”

The Visualization of Biofilms in Chronic Diabetic Foot Wounds Using Routine Diagnostic Microscopy Methods by Angela Oates, Frank L. Bowling, Andrew J. M. Boulton, Philip G. Bowler, Daniel G. Metcalf, Andrew J. McBain

“…Microcolonies were identified in 4/4 samples by all three microscopy methods, although bright-field and fluorescence microscopy were more effective at highlighting putative biofilm morphology than ESEM. Results in this pilot study indicate that bacterial microcolonies and putative biofilm matrix can be visualized in chronic wounds using florescence microscopy and ESEM, but also using the simple Gram stain.…”
