Proteolytic and amylolytic enzymes for bacterial biofilm control

Biofilms are characterized by surface attachment, structural heterogeneity; genetic diversity; complex community interactions and an extracellular matrix of polymeric substances (EPS). Biofilms deposit and adhere to all surfaces that are immersed in aqueous environments. EPS serves many functions in...
