About This Cover
Cover photograph (Copyright © 2007, American Society for Microbiology. All Rights Reserved.): Cross sections of Staphylococcus epidermidis biofilms probed to illuminate regions of DNA synthetic activity (green) and counterstained to show the extent of the biomass (red). This and other techniques suggest that S. epidermidis biofilms harbor cells in at least four different states: growing aerobically, growing fermentatively, dormant, and dead. The three specimens shown here were each approximately 150 &mgr;m thick. (See related article on page 4223.)
