BslA(YuaB) forms a hydrophobic layer on the surface of Bacillus subtilis biofilms

Summary Biofilms are surface‐associated bacterial aggregates, in which bacteria are enveloped by polymeric substances known as the biofilm matrix. Bacillus subtilis biofilms display persistent resistance to liquid wetting and gas penetration, which probably explains the broad‐spectrum resistance of...
