Biofilm is a complex aggregation of microorganisms, principally bacteria, associated with their extracellular polymers, and surface attached. Many bacteria, mainly saprophytes, but also some oportunistic human pathogens, live in a water sypplying system. Depending on water quality and other factors, these bacteria are able to form biofilms. The formed biofilm is usually resistant to traditional supply system treating methods, including disinfection. The aim of this study is to make a contribution to the knowledge about bacteria Pseudomonas aeroginosa in biofilm structure. By understanding biofilms, wrong interpretation of microbiological results in water supply system samples analyses could be avoided.
