Table 2 In vitro antibiofilm action of biocides on E. hirae ATCC 10541 grown on polystyrene and stainless steel, expressed as relative reduction (%) of biofilm biomass in respect to the untreated sample (control), after 60 min of contact at 20 and 37 °C. The biocides were used at concentration recommended by manufacturers
