Biofilms in vitro and in vivo: do singular mechanisms imply cross-resistance?

Symposium series (Society for Applied Microbiology) - 1 Jan 2002

Gilbert P, Allison D G, McBain A J

Abstract excerpt

Microbial biofilm has become inexorably linked with man's failure to control them by antibiotic and biocide regimes that are effective against suspended bacteria. This failure relates to a localized concentration of biofilm bacteria, and their extracellular products (exopolymers and extracellular enzymes), that moderates the access of the treatment agent and starves the more deeply placed cells. Biofilms,...
