ZME Science on MSNMicroplastics Could Be Making Bacteria Resistant to AntibioticsThey are everywhere: in oceans, floating in the air, and even inside the human body. Microplastics have become an unavoidable ...
Biofilms, ubiquitous bacterial communities embedded in a slimy matrix, are the oldest form of multicellularity on Earth; they ...
“Microplastics are like rafts — a bacteria on its own might not be able to swim down a river, but riding in its biofilm on a tiny bit of plastic it can be disseminated into many different ...

Discover Magazine on MSNMicroplastics May Contribute to Antibiotic ResistanceResearchers keep finding microplastics in more parts of our bodies — and linking them to more health ill effects.
Bacteria from meat can attach, grow, and build up to create a biofilm that is difficult to remove, even on stainless steel surfaces used in industrial facilities. It can also aggregate ...
A study published in the journal Microbiological Research, found that the bacterial and matrix composition of biofilms is not significantly altered by the presence of Listeria monocytogenes ...
