From: Biofilm delays wound healing: A review of the evidence
A dehisced surgical incision in a relatively ischemic patient. The opaque film on the wound bed (centre) re-formed daily and could be lifted off to reveal intact granular buds. Ultrasonic debridement was ineffective at disrupting or removing this thick, mature biofilm. Slough is also evident on the intact skin around the wound (top centre, top right, bottom right).
