Summary

Description
English: Scanning electron micrograph of mixed-culture biofilm, demonstrating in detail a spatially heterogeneous arrangement of bacterial cells and extracellular polymeric substances. The stainless steel (type 316) sample surface was incubated under high fluid shear stress and continuous flow conditions in the CDC Biofilm Reactor at 50 °C for 22h with high-heat skimmed milk powder reconstituted and preheated to 72 °C. Cocci and bacilli could be observed, although a direct correlation between bacterial morphological differences and clinical/radiographic findings was not established by means of SEM evaluation.
Polski: Skaningowa mikrografia elektronowa biofilmu (błona biologiczna) składającego się z kultury mieszanej, pokazująca przestrzennie niejednorodny układ komórek bakteryjnych i pozakomórkowych substancji polimerowych. Powierzchnię próbki ze stali nierdzewnej (typ 316) inkubowano w warunkach wysokiego naprężenia ścinającego i ciągłego przepływu w bio-reaktorze typu CDC w 50 °C przez 22 godziny przy użyciu odtłuszczonego mleka w proszku typu "high-heat", które zostało rozpuszczone w wodzie i podgrzane do 72 °C . Można zaobserwować ziarniaki i pałeczki, chociaż bezpośrednia korelacja między różnicami morfologicznymi bakterii a wynikami klinicznymi / radiograficznymi nie została ustalona za pomocą oceny SEM.
