Pseu’s Great Escape


Pseu’s Great Escape tells the story of a bacteria called Pseudomonas flourescens that lives in wet environments like rivers. This bacteria is very good at forming biofilms, groups of cells which stick together and protect each other – safety in numbers. In this story, Pseu narrowly escapes a predator, a giant protozoan, by finding safety by forming a biofilm in the reeds.
