Antibiofilm Strategies in the Food Industry, this chapter discusses the main conventional and emergent strategies that have been employed to prevent bacterial adhesion to food processing surfaces and thus to efficiently maintain good hygiene throughout the food industries.

Biofilm research was initially focused on “environmental” biofilms, such as those present in wastewater tubing. More recently, “medical” biofilms as present during human infection have gained increased attention, an

The steps can include sample collection, fixation, embedding and sectioning, staining, and imaging. Each of these steps is discussed in this chapter. Selection of an appropriate staining technique is one of the key considerations for

While our understanding of QS dynamics in laboratory culture conditions has dramatically expanded over the last few decades, we still understand very little about how these systems govern bacterial behavior in complex, natural settings. What we do know is that QS can

Two case studies are presented, the first concerning cell transformation with recombinant plasmid
