Disinfectant as Removal Agent of the Pre-Formed Biofilm by Staphylococcus sp. Isolated from Dental Clinics in Taif, KSA

Background and purpose: Staphylococcus sp. are pathogenic bacteria widely investigated for its high incidence in clinical environments ability to form strong biofilms. The biofilm-related infections can resist several antimicrobial agents; therefore, the therapy of these may face difficulties. aim this study is identify staphylococcal isolated from dental clinics, evaluate effect some disinfectants on removing preformed biofilms demonstrate adhesion cells surfaces materials used manufacturing material using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Material Methods: Out 70 different swabs, 12 Staphylococcal isolates were recovered. All subjected 13 agents test their sensitivity. biofilm established isolates, as well disinfectant removal estimated microtiter plate (MtP) test. SEM was demonstrating formation by tested stainless steel rubber surfaces. Results: Of 33.3, 16.6 50% shown strong, moderate weak producers, respectively. Adhesions found be reduced presence betadine sodium bicarbonate. Captured photographs confirmed capability S. aureus H3 hominis M0401 Conclusion: effective preventive strategies infection control essential prevent clinics. This reveals antibiofilm
