Microfluidic Devices for Imaging and Biochemistry Analysis of Microbes Under Mechanical Pressure

Growth-induced pressure arises when proliferating cell populations are confined within rigid microenvironments and is increasingly recognized as a determinant of microbial physiology in soils, biofilms, and host tissues. We present two complementary microfluidic devices that confine microbes within polydimethylsiloxane...
