A schematic illustration of a bacterial biofilm attached to a solid substrate. Rod-shaped bacteria are embedded within the extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) matrix, while a few planktonic cells with flagella swim nearby. In hierarchical terms, individual prokaryotic cells reside within a multicellular community on a surface. In microbiology and pathology, such biofilms enable adhesion, nutrient retention, and increased antimicrobial tolerance. The entity shown is a microbial community on a surface; site is a generic abiotic substrate; species not specified.
