The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Burn Wound Infections (2006, methodology): “Once mature, biofilms act as efficient barriers against antimicrobial agents and the host immune system, resulting in persistent colonization and/or infection at the site of biofilm formation (118, 326).”
Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci (2014, background): “With the exception of rifampin, approximately 100- to 1,000-fold increases in minimal bactericidal levels have been demonstrated against most antibiotics (606).”
Critical review on biofilm methods (2017, methodology): “Like the Calgary biofilm device it was originally developed to rapidly screen antibiotics or bio-cides against sessile bacteria and thus determine the minimum biofilm eradication concentration (Olson et al., 2002), but just in a couple of hours.”
