➖Biofilms can attach to a surface such as a tooth, rock, or surface, and may include a single species or a diverse group of microorganisms.
➖The biofilm bacteria can share nutrients and are sheltered from harmful factors in the environment, such as desiccation, antibiotics, and a host body's immune system.
