Abstract
Nowadays, studies of bacteriophages (bacterial viruses), as well as of natural and artificial biofilms forming everywhere at different substrates, in organisms of humans and animals are very important, but poorly investigated fields in biology. The article presents a modern literature review concerning interaction of bacteriophages with biofilms of different origin.
Keywords
classification of bacteriophages, biofilms structure, penetration and functioning of phages in biofilms, phages vs. biofilms, methods for biofilms studies
