'Biofilm Perspectives' addresses the structure and dynamics of biofilms, as well as environmental aspects. Additional topics include biofilms in medicine, environmental systems, and technical systems.
Living in biofilms is the common way of life of microorganisms, transiently immobilized in their matrix of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), interacting in many ways and using the matrix as an external digestion and protection system. This is how they have organized thei…
Biofilms are implicated in many common medical problems including urinary tract infections, catheter infections, middle-ear infections, dental plaque, gingivitis, and some less common but more lethal processes such as endocarditis and infections in cystic fibrosis. However, the …

Biofilms are the most common mode of bacterial growth in nature. Highly resistant to antibiotics and antimicrobials, biofilms are the source of more than 65 percent of Health Care Associated Infections (HCAI), which, according to the WHO, affect 1.4 million people annually. Biof…
