PSMs are responsible for quorum-sensing controlled waves of detachment in dynamic S. aureus biofilms. Dynamic (flow cell) biofilm formation was measured over 5 d, and three randomly chosen biofilm CLSM images were analyzed for the total biovolume at regular intervals. Arrows mark the detachment waves occurring in the WT sample after the third day of biofilm formation.
