Emerging Issues and Initial Insights into Bacterial Biofilms: From Orthopedic Infection to Metabolomics

Bacterial biofilms, enigmatic communities of microorganisms enclosed in an extracellular matrix, still represent an open challenge in many clinical contexts, including orthopedics, where biofilm-associated bone and joint infections remain the main cause of implant failure. This study explores the sc...
