Bacterial biofilms are complex microbial communities encased in extracellular polymeric
substances. Their formation is a multi-step process. Biofilms are a significant problem in …

Bacteria can form single-and multispecies biofilms exhibiting diverse features based upon
the microbial composition of their community and microenvironment. The study of bacterial …

Studies on biofilm related infections are gaining prominence owing to their involvement in
majority of clinical infections. Biofilm, considered as a generic mechanism for survival used …

Bacteria have traditionally been regarded as individual organisms growing in homogeneous
planktonic populations. However, bacteria in natural environments usually form communities …

Biofilm formation constitutes an alternative lifestyle in which microorganisms adopt a
multicellular behavior that facilitates and/or prolongs survival in diverse environmental …

Bacterial biofilms are integrated, multi-species communities of cells that adhere to almost
any surface and are fundamental to the ecology and biology of bacteria. Not only do biofilms …

Bacterial biofilms are complex surface attached communities of bacteria held together by
self-produced polymer matrixs mainly composed of polysaccharides, secreted proteins, and …

Biofilm refers to the complex, sessile communities of microbes found either attached to a
surface or buried firmly in an extracellular matrix as aggregates. The biofilm matrix …

Biofilms are aggregates of bacteria, in most cases, which are resistant usually to broad-
spectrum antibiotics in their typical concentrations or even in higher doses. A trend of …

Bacteria can attach to essentially all materials and form multicellular biofilms with high-level
tolerance to antimicrobials. Detrimental biofilms are responsible for a variety of problems …
