Bacterial cells frequently experience fluid motion in their natural environments, like water bodies, aerosols, fomites, human capillaries, etc., a phenomenon that researchers have largely overlooked. Nevertheless, some reports suggested the interfacial stresses caused by inside evaporating droplets or shear flows within capillaries may trigger physiological and morphological changes bacterial cells. Remarkably, virulence of exhibits significant alterations response to fluctuations stress levels external environmental factors. The dynamics systems are analogous colloidal but with distinction exhibit responsiveness, necessitating thorough exploration dynamic environments. In this perspective, we discuss important issue pertaining survival, virulence, disease transmission. Furthermore, delineate pathway underscore emerging opportunities demand unveil new avenues domains pathogenicity, drug development, strategies for mitigation.
