Rhamnolipids as a Tool for Eradication of <i>Trichosporon cutaneum</i> Biofilm

Microbial biofilms formed by pathogenic and antibiotic-resistant microorganisms represent a serious threat for public health in medicine and many industrial branches. Biofilms are involved in many persistent and chronic infections, the biofouling of water and food contamination. Therefore, current r...
