Characterization of Biofilms and Antibiofilm Effect of Carvacrol and 2-Aminobenzimidazole.

Biofilm-associated foodborne infections in poultry have become increasingly challenging for veterinarians, particularly in developing countries, and warrant thorough investigation. We assessed the biofilm-forming tendency of poultry isolates of , namely Typhimurium ( = 23), Infantis ( = 28), and Heidelberg ( = 18), in nutrient-rich Rappaport-Vassiliadis Soya (RVS) peptone broth and nutrient-deficient diluted Tryptone Soya Broth (TSB). Seven of the tested isolates exhibited moderate biofilm formation in diluted TSB, whereas two showed such formation in RVS.
