%X Scanning electron micrograph showing adherence and biomass accumulation of the wild type parental Bh Houston strain. Bh growth from 8£¿h a, through 72£¿h d. On Day 1, cells first attach a (8£¿h), before aggregation and production of micro-colonies (24£¿h) b. The aggregates undergo tremendous growth at 48£¿h c and begin to produce a biofilm within 72£¿h d. Bacterial EPS was preserved by the addition of Alcian blue to the fixative.
