Hi,

1. What is the most appropriate method for growing biofilms if the objective
is to obtain atleast 2ug of DNA or RNA ?
2. I choose to grow them in static mode over a glass slide 1" x 3" immersed
in a culture broth, will this method work?
3. If this be the method after how many hours of incubation will i be able
to visualise the film layer ?
4. Alternatively can i use the method as shown in the following link for the
aforesaid objective.

I need some expert advice on the subject.

Thanks and regards,

Prem Saran
