At Melbec Microbiology, we specialise in advanced biocidal efficacy testing against biofilms using a validated colony biofilm method. Our testing capabilities cover a wide range of biofilm types, including:
- Bacterial biofilms
- Fungal biofilms
- Multi-species biofilms
Biofilms are notoriously resilient, often more difficult to eliminate than their planktonic counterparts. Their complex structure and protective matrix make them highly resistant to antimicrobial treatments, posing significant challenges in healthcare, personal care, and industrial settings.
Our laboratory offers tailored testing solutions to assess the effectiveness of biocidal products in eradicating these persistent microbial communities. Whether you’re developing disinfectants, wound care products, or antimicrobial coatings, our biofilm testing services provide the data you need to validate product performance and meet regulatory standards.
We are also able to develop the method for a specific organism if a client has a factory isolate which is causing problems or for a specific efficacy claim.
