Biofilm-mediated bioremediation resulted more efficient and safer bioremediation in comparison vith that, for example, carried out by planktonic bacteria. Microorganisms presenting in the biofilm possessed a concrete opportunity to adapt to different environments and to ensure the microbial survival allowing the mineralization processes. [Pg.530]

Biofilm formation is believed to play a crucial role in infection mechanisms. This is the case, for example, of Staphylocoaus epidermidis and P. aeruginosa, and for the genera Escherichia, Legionella, Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, and Vibrio involved in clinical chronic infections. Their biofilms ensure protection firom antibiotics preventing penetration of different agents. i [Pg.530]

The development of advanced microscopy and spectroscopy techniques, such as scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, confocal laser scanning microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance imaging, is [Pg.530]

EPSs are an important component of biological systems, beneficial for the organisms that produce them as they fulfill variety of functions. However, the physiological role of EPSs in bacteria has not been clearly established, and is probably diverse and complex. [Pg.531]
