      Biofilms.

AB  - Methods to reuse large numbers of scallop shells from the harvesting regions of 
      Japan are being explored. The major component of scallop shells is calcium 
      carbonate (CaCO(3)), which forms the powerful bactericidal agent, calcium oxide 
      (CaO), when heated. Heated scallop shell powder (HSSP) exhibits strong and 
      broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against bacteria, fungi, and viruses. This 
      study investigated the antibiofilm activity of HSSP against the biofilms of 
      Campylobacter jejuni, which is the predominant species in campylobacteriosis. 
      Biofilm samples of C. jejuni were prepared on 0.45 microm filter paper under 
      microaerobic conditions. The HSSP treatment inactivated and eradicated C. jejuni 
      biofilms. The resistance of C. jejuni biofilms to HSSP was significantly higher 
      than that of the floating cells. Moreover, the antibiofilm activity of the HSSP 
      treatment against C. jejuni biofilms was higher than that of NaOH treatment at 
      the same pH. These results indicated that HSSP treatment is an effective method 
      for controlling C. jejuni biofilms.
