‘Bisceps’ Biofilm susceptibility sensors for in situ biofilm monitoring. KU Leuven
Biofilms are-surface associated microbial communities that are highly tolerant against antimicrobials and therefore cause persistent contaminations and infections in industrial and medical sectors. In particular, biofilms formed on medical implants often lead to chronic infection and implant replacement, whereas biofilms in food and other industries can lead to product contamination. This project aims at the development of a novel sensor ...
