  Innovation Toronto has been running since 2007 and as such is getting a little old in terms of its constituent parts. the theme in particular has been a problem mainly because we relied too much on some of the components attached to it and therefore could not move on without extensive work. it is now come to the point where that extensive work is going to produce good results. we are already in the process of updating and upgrading various parts of it and over time will make sure that each and every post has been Revisited and revamped so it presents as best it can.

controlling biofilms

UC San Diego scientists developed a new technology that specifically targets one type of cell among genetically identical bacteria that live in the same microenvironment. They discovered that a second-long shock emitted by an electrode (dark circle in the center), preferentially causes growth of (orange) motile cells, rather than (blue) matrix-producing cells, thereby changing the ratio of cell types in the community.

Is electricity a new tool that can destabilize biofilms without creating antibiotic resistance?
