摘要

A thorough analysis of the complex relationship between metabolomics and livestock biofilm formation is provided in this chapter. The field of metabolomics is introduced at the beginning, along with its significance in understanding the complex functioning of microbial processes. Identifying important metabolites, such as quorum sensing compounds and extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), that affect biofilm growth therefore serves as the primary area of analysis. This chapter clarifies host-specific aspects and temporal fluctuations during biofilm formation by doing an in-depth examination of the metabolomic changes within the microbiota of diverse livestock species. Additionally, it discusses advanced metabolomic profiling methods, such as chromatography, mass spectrometry, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and highlights how they can be used to identify metabolites linked to the production of biofilms. This chapter also looks at pathogens linked with biofilms and their metabolomic signatures, which sheds light on the complicated interactions between pathogens and hosts. It also explores metabolomic approaches aimed at disrupting biofilm formation, emphasizing the targeted manipulation of specific metabolites as potential therapeutic interventions. Looking toward the future, this chapter outlines prospective research directions and emerging trends in metabolomics for biofilm-associated livestock diseases. It identifies unexplored areas and emphasizes the potential for collaborative, interdisciplinary efforts to advance metabolomic research in livestock health.
