Abstract
Given plans for humans to engage in prolonged space travel, we investigated biofilm and pigment/virulence factor formation in Pseudomonas aeruginosa when cultivated in microgravity. These bacteria are opportunistic pathogens in immunocompromised individuals. Previous studies of space travelers have shown some immune system diminutions. Hence, our studies shed some light on how prolonged cultivation of bacteria in simulated microgravity conditions affect their growth characteristics.
