TL;DR: This review summarizes recent works dedicated to understanding the influences of surface charge, surface wettability, roughness, topography, stiffness, and combination of properties on bacterial adhesion and highlights other factors that are often neglected inacterial adhesion studies such as bacterial motility and the effect of hydrodynamic flow.

TL;DR: The results of minimal biofilm eradication concentration (MBEC) clearly confirm that the concentration required to eradicate biofilm-grown Pseudomonas aeruginosa is higher than the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) that has been widely used to determine the lowest concentration of antibiotics against planktonically grown bacteria.

TL;DR: P. aeruginosa, with its complex chemotaxis system, is a better model microorganism for investigating ecological aspects ofChemotaxis in environmental bacteria than Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, which possess a relatively simpler chemotactic system.

TL;DR: Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain PAO1 was attracted by ethylene and Assays of a set of mutants containing deletions in 26 potential methyl-accepting chemotaxis protein genes revealed that tlpQ (PA2654) encodes the chemoreceptor for positive Chemotaxis to ethylene.
