Encounter rates between bacteria and small sinking particles
Jonasz Słomka, Uria Alcolombri, Eleonora Secchi +2
Bacteria in aquatic environments often interact with particulate matter. A key example is bacterial degradation of marine snow responsible for carbon export from the upper ocean in…
Modeling the impact of dilution on the microbial degradation time of dispersed oil in marine environments
Vicente I. Fernandez, Roman Stocker, Gabriel Juarez
Dispersants aid the breakup of crude oil masses and increase the available interfacial surface area for bacteria to degrade insoluble hydrocarbons in the marine environment. Howeve…
Bacteria push the limits of chemotactic precision to navigate dynamic chemical gradients
Douglas R. Brumley, Francesco Carrara, Andrew M. Hein +3
Ephemeral aggregations of bacteria are ubiquitous in the environment, where they serve as hotbeds of metabolic activity, nutrient cycling, and horizontal gene transfer. In many cas…
The 'Swiss cheese' instability of bacterial biofilms
Hongchul Jang, Roberto Rusconi, Roman Stocker
We demonstrate a novel pattern that results in bacterial biofilms as a result of the competition between hydrodynamic forces and adhesion forces. After the passage of an air plug,…
