What is Understanding Biofilm Pathogenicity about?
Bacteria often exist in complex biofilm communities attached to surfaces, where they can cooperate and protect each other. Biofilms make bacteria more resistant to antibiotics and host immune responses. This pathogenicity contributes to diseases like cystic fibrosis and dental caries, where biofilms form in the lungs or on teeth and cause chronic infection and tissue damage that is difficult to treat.
