The anti‐biofilm effects of Byotrol™ G32

ConclusionsByotrol™ G32 displays impressive antimicrobial activity both in suspension and as a coating. Pre‐treating medical devices with Byotrol™ G32 may significantly impede biofilm formation and prolong the lifetime of the device.Significance and Impact of the studyMedical devices are indispensable in health care. They are, however, a predisposing factor in infection. This research has demonstrated that Byotrol™ G32 reduces bacterial growth and subsequent biofilm formation. Application of Byotrol™ G32 as a medical device coating could have a significant impact on the costs associated with device replacement and patient morbidity and mortality.© 2013 The Authors Journal of Applied Microbiology © 2013 The Society for Applied Microbiology (Source: Journal of Applied Microbiolo...
