Meanings of flagellate bacteria in inglés

Here, we show that micro-obstacles influence the propagation of peritrichously flagellated bacteria on a flat surface in a non-monotonic way.

I had the idea of programming the microbivores that are sent to deal with flagellated bacteria to roll their targets into a ball.

Solid boundaries can strongly influence a cell's propulsion mechanism, thus leading many flagellated bacteria to describe long circular trajectories stably entrapped by the surface.
