The role of hydrodynamic stress on the phenotypic characteristics of single and binary biofilms of Pseudomonas fluorescens

This study investigates the phenotype of turbulent (Re = 5200) and laminar (Re = 2000) flow-generated P. fluorescens biofilms. Three P. fluorescens strains, the type strain– ATCC 13525 and two strains isolated from an industrial processing plant - D3-348 and D3-350, were used throughout this study....
