Full Description
This exam assesses knowledge of the theoretical frameworks governing microbial biofilm formation and functionality. Students will articulate the mechanisms involved in microbial adherences, such as quorum sensing and extracellular polymeric substances production.
The significance of these frameworks lies in understanding the implications for public health, environmental sustainability, and biomedical applications, particularly their roles in chronic infections and bioremediation processes.
This examination will test the student's verbal ability to communicate the complexities of biofilm dynamics, including microbial interactions and environmental influences on biofilm stability and resilience.
Students are expected to demonstrate a comprehensive understanding of experimental design in studies related to biofilms, as well as an ability to critically evaluate current research findings.
