Cold plasma⚡ meets biofilms at #NISF25!

Had a brilliant time showing how this fourth state of matter is changing the game in antimicrobial research!

Huge thanks to everyone who stopped by to chat—always great to share the wonders of plasma science!

Extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing bacteria from hospital wastewater pipes: isolation, characterization and biofilm control using common disinfectants
Hospital wastewater systems have been identified as reservoirs for antibiotic-resistant bacteria, with biofilms harbouring extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing micro-organisms posing significant infection risk.

Here’s my spreadsheet of starter packs (>80!) related to broadly ‘mechanistic biology’ plus some intriguing extras

Complete with collective nouns

I’ve been tracking these but now can’t keep up

Hope it’s helpful
