Abstract

The review is devoted to an urgent problem of biofilms of hospital ecosystems as a factor of emergence and distribution of activators the nosocomial infections. The fundamental principles of the organization of biofilms are formulated. The literal data according to which bacteria (e.g. Pseudomonas aeruginosa) are at the same time pathogens (in planktonic and biofilm forms) and producers of bacteriocines as inhibitors of biofilms formation are given. The results of researches on an assessment of bacterial action of underground natural mineral waters are discussed. It is suggested that there is possibility of formation of artificial biofilms from bactericidal strains of bacteria which either will create a protective film on epidemic significant medical devices and surfaces, or replace infective biofilms on bactericidal in an alive organism.
