In Vitro Evaluation of Madio Pro+ Multipurpose Disinfectant Reveals Its Efficacy against Salmonella typhimurium Biofilm

Biofilms are complex communities of microorganisms that adhere to surfaces and develop a protective matrix. The colonization of devices in the food and health care industries by microbial biofilms poses numerous risks. Existing antimicrobial agents often fail to penetrate the biofilm matrix, allowing the pathogen to grow and persist. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of MADIO PRO+ multipurpose disinfectant on Salmonella Typhimurium biofilm using crystal violet assay and FTIR spectroscopy. Results demonstrated that MADIO PRO+ multipurpose disinfectant significantly (p<0.05) inhibited biomass of S. Typhimurium biofilm and altered the structure of S. Typhimurium biofilm. In conclusion, MADIO PRO+ multipurpose disinfectant offers an advantage in biofilm control strategy. This discovery could help the food and health care industries to plan better microbial intervention strategies.
