Chapter One deals with the structural and developmental aspects of bacterial biofilms; the problems associated with biofilm formation and current control strategies utilized in clinical and industrial sectors; and the advances regarding the use of compounds derived from plants to control the formation of biofilms at the different stages of development. Chapter Two discusses how the current antibiotic crisis has made understanding bacterial cellular metabolism essential for improving existing therapies and identifying novel therapeutic approaches. Bactericidal agents have been reported targeting the cytoplasmic membrane, DNA, RNA, protein synthesis, and cell wall synthesis.
