Abstract
This paper explores the multifaceted impact of biofilms, bacterial communities enveloped in extracellular polymeric substance (EPS). Biofilms play a dual role, acting as environmental champions and health threats. They interact with heavy metals, either causing pollution or aiding environmental remediation. Beneficial biofilms generate electricity and repair concrete cracks, offering sustainable solutions. Conversely, they contribute to infections, posing health risks. The study emphasizes the need for in-depth research, utilizing bibliographic methods to analyze global biofilm research. By identifying keywords, core countries, and pivotal organizations, the paper informs future investigations, offering insights into biofilm research evolution and practical applications.
