ABSTRACT

In this presentation the hydro dynamical condition of quorum sensing in the biofilm growth is investigated using convection diffusion reaction equation and analyzed environmental condition. It is used to analyze the influence of hydrodynamics and structural heterogeneities on mass transfer in this quorum sensing mechanism. The future direction of stochastic model of quorum sensing in bacteria is given.
