Colonization
Definition:
(n.) The act of colonizing, or the state of being colonized; the formation of a colony or colonies.

Recolonization
Definition:
(n.) A second or renewed colonization.
Example Sentences:
(1) The role of colonizing capacity and other bacterial features in determining the immunizing efficiency of live V. cholerae was studied by determining the efficiency with which graded inocula of each strain immunized against attempted recolonization of the ileum or induction of choleralike diarrhea by the RITARD (removable intestinal tie-adult rabbit diarrhea) challenge technique using standard inocula of virulent V. cholerae.
(2) The present experimental study has been undertaken in order to analyze the influence of bacterial recolonization on periodontal wound healing following guided tissue regeneration therapy in humans.
(3) We now show that recolonization of alymphoid lobes can also be achieved by association with T-cell precursors in hanging drops, allowing recolonization by exposure to defined numbers of precursors, including a single micromanipulated stem cell.
