Figure 1

Number of sessile C. albicans cells in biofilms grown in the various model systems. Average number of culturable sessile cells (mean log10 CFU/cm2 ± SD) at selected time points during biofilm growth of C. albicans strain SC5314 in the various biofilm model systems. Biofilm growth was monitored on silicone in two in vitro models (MTP and CDC reactor), on polyurethane in an in vivo SCR model and on oral mucosal epithelium in the RHE model.
