Evaluating the effect of various types of disinfectants on bacterial biofilms

Biofilm formation on equipment surfaces is a potential food safety hazard, providing increased resistance and persistence of pathogens spoilage microorganisms in production environments. The issue preventing the biofilm extremely important, since wide range disinfectants does not always provide proper effect. article discusses antimicrobial effectiveness with various active ingredients (based chlorine, peracetic acid quaternary ammonium compounds (QAC) enzymatic substances) binary biofilms. objects study were strains pathogenic opportunistic isolated from abiotic environments products. Different effects biofilms formed by bacteria have been established. Disinfectant based chlorine had greatest effect Brochothrix thermosphacta/Salmonella spp. Staphylococcus equorum/Salmonella Listeria monocytogenes 12/Pseudomonas azotoformans 6 was shown chlorine-based disinfectant. Disinfectants QAC substances most effective against L. 12/Salmonella 14. However, none absolute studied Biofilm-forming to recommended concentrations disinfectants. Therefore, currently, it important revise approaches hygiene at enterprises finding working new agents procedure that are for destroying
