(A to E) Scanning electron micrographs of S. maltophilia SM33 biofilms formed on polystyrene surfaces at 2, 4, 8, 16, and 24 h, respectively. Magnifications, ×1,000 (A to D) and ×2,000 (E). (F) Transmission electron micrograph of a 24-h biofilm produced by S. maltophilia SM33. Arrows indicate glycocalyx surrounding bacteria. The asterisk indicates the biofilm limit line in contact with the polystyrene surface. Bar, 0.5 μm. (Reprinted from reference 89 with permission.)‏
