Biofilms cause biofouling, pipe plugging, prostheses colonization, disease, and nosocomial infections. Bacterial biofilms are more resilient to sterilization methods than planktonic bacteria; therefore, better control methods are required. The use of gas discharge plasmas is an appropriate alternative since plasmas contain a mixture of reactive agents well-known for bacterial decontamination.This study assessed culture medium-abiotic surface combinations leading to robust biofilms; and tested an air-based coaxial dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma source on Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms grown in continuous culture under those selected conditions. Biofilms were eradicated after a 15-minutes plasma treatment resulting in a CFU/mL dec...
