Nondestructive 3D Imaging and Quantification of Hydrated Biofilm-Sediment Aggregates Using X‑ray Microcomputed Tomography

Biofilm-sediment aggregate (BSA) contains a high water content, either within internal pores and channels or bound by extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) forming a highly hydrated biofilm matrix. Desiccation of BSAs alters the biofilm morphology and thus the physical characteristics of porous m...
