Abstract
Biofilms pose significant challenges due to their role in biological contamination and water quality damage. This review explores physical/chemical strategies for controlling biofilms, emphasizing the potential of nanomaterials to enhance antibiofilm performance. Popular characterization methods in biofilm studies are summarized in two aspects, bactericidal monitoring, and anti-adhesion monitoring, which serve as a toolbox for future studies. The insights provided are crucial for advancing biofilm management in various fields.
