Abstract

Microorganisms adhere themselves with different surfaces like indwelling medical devices, equipment’s of different industries like water, food and dairy products etc. Microorganisms after attachment produce EPS, which help them in the development of biofilms. Commonly known pathogens including, bacteria, fungi, viruses, protozoa and pathogenic cyanobacteria, are involved in biofilm formation. Biofilms are involved in many persistent and chronic infections in human and animals, increase resistance to antimicrobials, biofouling of water and spoilage or contamination of food and dairy products etc. Biofilms producing bacteria is a serious threat for public health globally but due to poor sanitary conditions and low economic resources chances of infections is high in developing countries. Effective control measures should be developed for the treatment and prevention of biofilm to get rid of serious problems.
产生生物膜的细菌:对发展中国家公众健康的严重威胁。
微生物附着在不同的表面,如医疗器械、不同行业的设备,如水、食品和乳制品等。微生物在附着后产生EPS,这有助于它们形成生物膜。众所周知的病原体包括细菌、真菌、病毒、原生动物和致病性蓝藻,都参与了生物膜的形成。生物膜涉及人类和动物的许多持续性和慢性感染,增加对抗菌素的耐药性,水的生物污染以及食品和乳制品的腐败或污染等。产生细菌的生物膜是全球公共卫生的严重威胁,但由于卫生条件差和经济资源低,感染的机会在发展中国家很高。对生物膜的处理和预防应制定有效的控制措施,以消除严重的问题。
