Meanings of bacterial colonisation in English

The piece takes the reader through key developments in biomaterials discovery, particularly focusing on need to reduce bacterial colonisation of surfaces.

These include the role of viral infection, the importance of residual bacterial colonisation and the impact of new antibiotics on the treatment of exacerbations.

Bacterial colonisation was quantified on all three coating surfaces.

At 12 months follow-up, there were no significant differences between groups in number of Pseudomonas bacterial colonisations or change in weight-to-height ratio.
