Bacteria inside the biofilm is equipped with high resistance towards antibiotics and host immune defenses. In fact, the biofilm is immune towards acid so that it can protect the bacteria from stomach acid. When ignored, the existence of this biofilm can cause severe illness and worsen diarrhea, thus we need specific and effective management. High dose of antibiotic can be an alternative way but  higher dose of antibiotic has been given for case with broad resistant , it is not the right answer to fight biofilm.

Institute of Human Virology and Cancer Biology Universitas Indonesia

Institute of Human Virology and Cancer Biology Universitas Indonesia (IHVCB-UI) is one of the few laboratory equipped with biosafety level 3 equipment in Indonesia. Maintained as one of the best and one of the center for diagnostic and study of Human Immunodeficiency Virus that has mutated and resistant from drugs (multiple drug or even extreme drug resistance) in Indonesia, has teached us a lot of things about biosafety and biosecurity.

The lab which located on the eight floor of IASTH building, Salemba 4, Central Jakarta, also focuses on education by accepting undergraduates, master, and even postgraduates students to study inside. The lab itself held together by a strong bond of friendship, under the guidance of dr. R. Fera Ibrahim, M.Sc., Ph.D., Sp.MK.
