3. Biofilms are assemblages of single or multiple
populations that are attached to abiotic or biotic surfaces
through extracellular polymeric substances
protection against antimicrobial agent
acquisition of a new genetic trait
nutrient availability
metabolically cooperability
According to the NIH
80% of all bacterial infections
65% of nosocomial infections
4. Biofilm prone areas in Dairy Industry

7. Reporting from frontiers
of health & medicine
Researchers at Ohio State announced
they’d invented a way to coat the
surfaces of medical devices (and
shampoo bottles) with Y-shaped
nanoparticles of quartz in a bid to
block biofilms from latching on tight.
