    Glossary Biofilms

    structured communities of microorganisms encased in protective substances

    Biofilms are structured communities of microorganisms, such as bacteria, that adhere to surfaces and are encased in a self-produced matrix of protective substances. These biofilms can form on various surfaces, including medical devices, pipes, and even human tissues, making them significant in both industrial and healthcare settings due to their resistance to antibiotics and cleaning agents.
