Microbial biofilms are populations of microorganisms that are found
on solid-liquid interface and are typically surrounded by a matrix
of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS). The aggregates of
cells not firmly attached to a surface are sometimes termed flocs
and have the same characteristics as biofilms. Bacteria in the
biofilms produce an extracellular matrix and this contributes to
~90% of the biofilm biomass. They are found in all environments
such as marine, freshwater, industrial surfaces, domestic
appliances exposed to tap water and wastewater, dental surfaces,
medical implants etc. This book discusses the characterization,
applications and recent advances in the study of biofilms.
