Biofilm Removal
Biofilm removal involves eliminating a structured community of microorganisms, like bacteria, that adhere to surfaces and produce a slimy, protective layer. This layer makes these microbes more resistant to cleaning and disinfection. Removing biofilms typically requires specialized cleaning methods such as scrubbing, chemical agents, or advanced techniques like ultrasound or laser treatments, to break down the protective matrix and eliminate the microorganisms effectively. Proper biofilm removal is essential in various settings—medical, industrial, and environmental—to prevent infections, contamination, and equipment degradation.
