Biofilm is a significant mechanism of microbial growth in the environment and is a mode of development distinct from developing planktonic organisms. The phenomenon of biofilm formation occurs under diverse conditions that require mostly moist surfaces that can be either living/natural or nonliving/man-made. Beneficial biofilm communities have been documented in many places, such as trickling filters in wastewater treatment plants, the alimentary canal of mammals, rivers, and streams. In nature, biofilms are found at all three types of interfaces: solid/liquid, solid/air, or liquid/liquid interfaces. Biofilm is an association of microorganisms that are immovably appended to the biotic or abiotic surface, covered within an extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) matrix, which are capable of displaying new character with respect to growth rate, gene expression, protein synthesis and metabolic activities. The environment consists of various domestic, industrial, and urban activities which release wastes of diverse forms, and these wastes are toxic to both humans and animals. Therefore, the EPS matrix produced by microorganisms affects the porosity, density, water content, surface charge, lipophilicity, and mechanical strength of biofilm cells for better survival in the microenvironment. |
