Abstract
T
This study was conducted to understand the effect of laser radiation on E. coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae bacteria found on the walls, floors, knives, and equipment of slaughterhouses. The current study involved collecting 160 clinical samples from slaughterhouses in Al-Diwaniyah and Babylon Governorates, Iraq.To ascertain how laser treatment affects bacterial adherence and biofilm formation, K. pneumoniae and E. coli.
The outcomes for E. coli and k. pneumoniae showed that laser irradiation affected the production of biofilms and bacterial adhesion, especially when the total number of hits rose. The impact was greatest at 10 hits with 300jw energy. Overall, the findings demonstrated that lasers had reduced the bacterial biofilm and adhesion formation.
