Biofilm is a microbial association or community attached to different biotic or abiotic surfaces or environments.
These surface-attached microbial communities can be found in food, medical, industrial, and natural environments.
Biofilm is a critical problem in the medical sector since it is formed on medical implants within human tissue and involved in a multitude of serious chronic infections.
Food and food processing surface become an ideal environment for biofilm formation where there are sufficient nutrients for microbial growth and attachment.
Therefore, biofilm formation on these surfaces, especially on food processing surface becomes a challenge in food safety and human health.
Microorganisms within a biofilm are encased within a matrix of extracellular polymeric substances that can act as a barrier and recalcitrant for different hostile conditions such as sanitizers, antibiotics, and other hygienic conditions.
Generally, they persist and exist in food processing environments where they become a source of cross-contamination and foodborne diseases.
The other critical issue with biofilm formation is their antibiotic resistance which makes medication difficult, and they use different physical, physiological, and gene-related factors to develop their resistance mechanisms.
In order to mitigate their production and develop controlling methods, it is better to understand growth requirements and mechanisms.
Therefore, the aim of this review article is to provide an overview of the role of bacterial biofilms in antibiotic resistance and food contamination and emphasizes ways for controlling its production.
