Global environmental contamination with a complex mixture of xenobiotics has become a
major environmental issue worldwide. Many xenobiotic compounds severely impact the …

Biofilms are widespread in nature and constitute an important strategy implemented by
microorganisms to survive in sometimes harsh environmental conditions. They can be …

The use of multiple omics techniques (ie, genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and

The conventional methods of plastic waste management such as mechanical and chemical
recycling, landfill complemented by incineration and pyrosis have limited scope. Thus …

Early identification of microbial pathogens is essential for rational and conservative antibiotic
use especially in the case of known regional resistance patterns. Here, we describe …

Developing reliable anti-biofilm strategies or efficient biofilm-based bioprocesses strongly
depends on having a clear understanding of the mechanisms underlying biofilm …

Biofilms pose a serious public health hazard with a significant economic impact on the food

The inherent differences in microbial behavior among identically treated strains of the same
microbial species, referred to as “strain variability”, are regarded as an important source of …

The lack of reproducibility of published studies is one of the major issues facing the scientific
community, and the field of biofilm microbiology has been no exception. One effective …
