To interact with the external environments, bacteria often display long proteinaceous appendages on their cell surface, called pili or fimbriae.

The distinctive name, “fimbriae”, was proposed by Duguid et al.7 in 1955 and has since been adopted by most authors publishing work on the subject in Britain ...
