Abstract

Key findings

  • Biofilm vitality decreases with increasing load, but recovers when load is reduced.
  • Substrate availability affects biofilm vitality, with higher substrate concentrations promoting biofilm vitality.
  • Biofilm vitality is more resilient to load changes when substrate is abundant.
