“…From a clinical point of view, there is a considerable relationship between the ability to form biofilms and resistance to conventional antibiotics (Sharma et al, 2019).According to the National Institute of Health, in humans, biofilms account for up to 80% of the total bacterial infections, including endocarditis, periodontitis, sinusitis, meningitis, osteomyelitis, chronic wounds, and prosthesis and implantable devices related infections (Khatoon et al, 2018). In many of these cases, infection arises from implantable medical devices, such as catheters, implants, and implantable electronic devices (Khatoon et al, 2018;Narayana and Srihari, 2019;Pelling et al, 2019) that become contaminated with bacteria, usually biofilms of staphylococci, streptococci, Gram-negative bacteria, and fungi (Kokare et al, 2009;Marks et al, 2014b;Rosini and Margarit, 2015;Gomes et al, 2016;Young et al, 2016;Castilho et al, 2017;Stewart and Bjarnsholt, 2020).…”
