From: Nonlinear rheological characteristics of single species bacterial biofilms

Fig. 1

a–d Panels show representative pictures of single species biofilms spreading out radially from a 2 μL droplet on the agar plates for a period of 6 days. Scale bars for panels a–d are 5 mm. e–h Panels show the distribution of cells in scraped off biofilms as seen under a confocal microscope. The biofilm scrapings were taken from thick mat of biofilm that was formed on agar plates after a growth period of 3 days. Scale bars for panels e–h are 50 μm.
