Bacterial Biofilm And Role In The Pathogenesis Of Disease

Background: Bacterial biofilms may play a role in pathogenesis which has led to increased focus on identifying diseases that be associated with biofilms. Chronic biofilm infections are usually chronic nature, as the bacteria live can resilient both immune system and antibiotics other treatments. Current knowledge of how contribute disease suggests number different mechanisms. This extends from being merely reservoir pathogenic bacteria, playing more active role, for example, by contributing inflammation. is important developing effective treatment strategies such infections.
