The Usefulness of Microalgae Compounds for Preventing Biofilm Infections
Biofilms play an important role in infectious diseases. It has been estimated that most medical infections are due to bacterial biofilms, and about 60−70% of nosocomial infections are also caused by the formation of a biofilm. Historically, microalgae are an important source of bioactive c...
