P. aeruginosa respond to the presence of PMNs by upregulating synthesis of a number of virulence determinants including rhamnolipids, all of which are able to cripple and eliminate cells of the host defense which support a 'launch a shield' model by which rhamnolipids surround the biofilm bacteria and on contact eliminate incoming PMNs
