Abstract:The biofilm of Escherichia coli begins with a reversible adhesion phase, in which the movement of the planktonic bacteria could be regulated by a chemotaxis system. It has been reported that bacteria have adhesion differences with respect to different chiral configurations of borneols, but the underlying mechanism is unclear. Here, we explored the mechanisms by which Lborneol and D-borneol influenced the adhesion of E. coli mediated by chemoreceptors using real-time tracking of three-dimensional (3D) trajector… Show more
