Microbial biofilms: biosurfactants as antibiofilm agents [PDF]
Current microbial inhibition strategies based on planktonic bacterial physiology have been known to have limited efficacy on the growth of biofilm communities. This problem can be exacerbated by the emergence of increasingly resistant clinical strains.
