Fig. 1From: Antibiotic susceptibility of Staphylococcus aureus with different degrees of biofilm formationModel of S. aureus biofilm development: (1) During the attachment phase, planktonic S. aureus adheres to a biotic surface and forms a monolayer. (2) After the attachment is accomplished, microcolonies are formed with multilayering cells. (3) The microcolonies evolve into a mature biofilmBack to article page
