Mechanisms¶
- Chemical or Biological Fouling Treatment
- … mode is the externalized-harm one the archetype flags most sharply: a treatment that solves the local interface problem by poisoning the surroundings, and one that breeds the very thing it fights — sub-lethal, uneven dosing selects for resistant organisms, so a persistent biofilm becomes progressively harder to kill.
This sourceShows that uneven disinfectant penetration exposes biofilm cells to sublethal concentrations that drive adaptive responses and increased survival on later exposure.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
