Abstrakt:

Bacterial colonisation of surfaces and biofilm formation have importantconsequences in medicine (contamination of catheters, prostheses, and artificial organs) and in food industry (contamination of food product lines). A biofllmcan be defined as a matrix enclosed bacteria populations’ adherent to eachother and/or to surfaces. The process of biofilm formation includes followingsteps: adhesion of cells, formation of microcolony and, finally, biofilm formation. Bacterial biofilm formation is influenced by a number of factors, such as:extracellular production of polymeric substances (mainly polysaccharides andproteins), hydrophobicity of cell wall, growth phase, environmental factors (pH,temperature, kind of media, ionic strength, polyvalent ions), surface roughnessand presence of signalling compounds. Hygienic aspects of biofilm formationand adhesion of bacteria to eukariotic cells were also described in this paper.
