What is Diffusion in Biofilms about?

The article discusses the significance of diffusion in microbial biofilms, highlighting how diffusion processes differ from those in planktonic cultures due to reduced fluid flow and increased diffusion distances. It presents calculations for estimating the time required for solutes to diffuse into biofilms, emphasizing the impact of biofilm structure on diffusion rates. Additionally, the article notes the importance of considering the effective diffusion coefficient and the potential for solute reactions w
