Antibiofilm Effect of DNase against Single and Mixed Species Biofilm

Antibiofilm Effect of DNase against Single and Mixed Species Biofilm

Biofilms are aggregates of microorganisms that coexist in socially coordinated micro-niche in a self-produced polymeric matrix on pre-conditioned surfaces. The biofilm matrix reduces the efficacy of antibiofilm strategies. DNase degrades the extracellular DNA (e-DNA) present in the matrix, rendering...
