DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2023.1125901
Abstract: Introduction Pseudomonas aeruginosa is known for its ability to form biofilms, which are dependent on the production of exopolysaccharides. During chronic colonization of the airway and biofilm formation, P. aeruginosa converts to a mucoid phenotype,… read more here.
