Effect of electrical energy on the efficacy of biofilm treatment using the bioelectric effect

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The use of electric fields in combination with small doses of antibiotics for enhanced treatment of biofilms is termed the ‘bioelectric effect’ (BE). Different mechanisms of action for the AC and DC fields have been reported in the literature over the last two decades. In this...
