Comments "Chemotaxis (the ability to sense chemical gradients and direct motility accordingly) further increases [compared to non-motile microbe, BNID 110352 and randomly swimming microbe, BNID 110353] the distance a microbe can traverse: a chemotactic velocity (the directional component of swimming) of 10µm/s results in a net displacement of 6 mm in 10 min."
