From: Micro-patterned surfaces reduce bacterial colonization and biofilm formation in vitro: Potential for enhancing endotracheal tube designs

Figure 4

The micro-pattern significantly reduces P. aeruginosa (ATCC 9027) biofilm formation in a mucin-rich environment by an average of 58% ( p = 0.009) over three separate experiments. A representative image per surface type from each experiment was selected randomly as all images were similar within each experiment. Images obtained by compiling the stack of images taken through the biofilm (Scale bar = 20 μm).
