Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The present invention is directed to a method of treating biofilms by exposure to heavy metals selected from the group comprising metal cations such as manganese, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc, aluminum, silver, mercury, lead, cadmium and tin; metal oxyanions such as molybdate, tungstate and chromate; and metalloid oxyanions, alone or in combination with antimicrobials. The present invention also includes compositions and methods for preparing or treating medical devices and medications. La présente invention concerne un procédé pour traiter des films bactériens en les exposant à des métaux lourds choisis dans le groupe comprenant des cations métalliques comme le manganèse, le cobalt, le nickel, le cuivre, le zinc, l'aluminium, l'argent, le mercure, le plomb, le cadmium et l'étain ; des oxyanions métalliques comme le molybdène, le tungstène et le chrome ; et des oxyanions métalloïdes, seuls ou combinés à des antimicrobiens. La présente invention inclut également des compositions et des procédés pour préparer ou traiter des dispositifs médicaux et des médicaments.
