EPS—then and now
“Slime” played a brief and spectacular role in the 19th century founded by the theory of
primordial slime by Ernst Haeckel. However, that substance was never found and eventually …

A review: Potential and challenges of biologically activated carbon to remove natural organic matter in drinking water purification process
The use of biologically activated carbon (BAC) in drinking water purification is reviewed. In
the past BAC is seen mostly as a polishing treatment. However, BAC has the potential to …

Conduction‐based modeling of the biofilm anode of a microbial fuel cell
The biofilm of a microbial fuel cell (MFC) experiences biofilm‐related (growth and mass
transport) and electrochemical (electron conduction and charger‐transfer) processes. We …

Effect of shear stress and growth conditions on detachment and physical properties of biofilms
Detachment is one of the major processes determining the physical structure and microbial
functionalities of biofilms. To predict detachment, it is necessary to take the mechanical …

Role of shear stress on composition, diversity and dynamics of biofilm bacterial communities
This article evaluates the effect of shear stress on the composition of biofilm bacterial
communities. For the first time, a Conical Couette–Taylor Reactor (CCTR) was used to …

Phage mobility is a core determinant of phage–bacteria coexistence in biofilms
Many bacteria are adapted for attaching to surfaces and for building complex communities,
termed biofilms. The biofilm mode of life is predominant in bacterial ecology. So too is the …
