Microfluidic Shear Assay to Distinguish between Bacterial Adhesion and Attachment Strength on Stiffness-Tunable Silicone Substrates

Tuning surface composition and stiffness is now an established strategy to improve the integration of medical implants. Recent evidence suggests that matrix stiffness affects bacterial adhesion, but contradictory findings have been reported in the literature. Distinguishing between the effects of ba...
