Utilizing glycoside hydrolases to improve the quantitation and visualization of biofilm bacteria

The complexity of microbial biofilms offers several challenges to the use of traditional means of microbial research. In particular, it can be difficult to calculate accurate numbers of biofilm bacteria, because even after thorough homogenization or sonication, small pieces of the biofilm remain, wh...
