Biomechanics of biofilms
Biofilms are living systems with a heterogeneous and multicomponent structure. This makes challenging the understanding of their mechanical properties as compared to other inert and homogeneous (...)
Electroactivity of Biofilms
Biofilms are one of the most prevalent life modes of microorganisms in natural and industrial settings. A decade ago, the biofilm formation on electrodes immersed into sediments was found to (...)
Intermediate filaments in hair
Hair fiber is a biological composite material mainly composed of keratin embedded in a peptide-matrix. Keratin is the intermediate filament (IF) specific of hair and skin. IFs are the main (...)
