Do biosurfactants as anti-biofilm agents have a future in industrial water systems?
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023 Biofilms are bacterial communities embedded in exopolymeric substances that form on the surfaces of both man-made and natural structures. Biofilm formation in industrial water systems such as cooling towers results in biofouling and biocorrosion and ...
