Aggregate of microorganisms in which cells adhere to each other and/or to a surface and are frequently embedded within a self-produced matrix of extracellular polymeric substance (EPS). A biofilm is a system whose inhabitants can adapt internally to environmental conditions. Slime, or self-produced extracellular polymeric material, is a polymeric conglomeration made up of extracellular biopolymers in various structural types.
