Airway biofilm disease.

Abstract:

:This paper describes the formation of biofilm, its characteristics, its effect on the host cells and treatment of the condition. The airway biofilm diseases are known to be intractable and persistent; also, auto-immune factors play a role in the development of the symptoms. The characteristic of airway biofilm diseases is of a harmful auto-immune reaction occurring along with the symptoms which are different from the simple acute infection interaction between microorganism and host in an acute airway infection.
