FIG. 1 Antimicrobial susceptibility testing with the flow cell biofilm model. (1) Medium bottle, where antibiotics are added and circulate through the flow cell for the required time. (2) Peristaltic pump, which provides laminar flow. (3) Bubble traps, which avoid destructive air bubbles forming on the flow cells. (4) Flow cells, where the biofilm develops. (5) Waste bottle. (a) Typical mushroom structure of Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm tagged with green fluorescent protein (GFP). (b) Red propidium iodide staining of dead cells/areas to observe and quantify the bactericidal effect during antibiotic treatment of GFP-tagged P. aeruginosa biofilm. (c) Different structural distribution of a mixed biofilm of two P. aeruginosa strains tagged with enhanced yellow fluorescent protein (outer part) and enhanced cyan fluorescent protein (internal part).
