This research explores how extracts from various mushroom species can help prevent harmful bacteria from forming biofilms (sticky bacterial colonies) on surfaces in food processing facilities. Using artificial intelligence, the researchers developed a model to predict how effective different mushroom extracts would be at preventing bacterial growth and attachment. This is important because bacterial biofilms are a major food safety concern and current chemical treatments can be harmful and lead to bacterial resistance. Impacts on everyday life: • Safer food products with fewer contamination risks • Natural alternatives to harsh chemical sanitizers in food processing • Potential reduction in foodborne illness outbreaks • More environmentally friendly food safety solutions • Cost-effective ways to keep food processing equipment clean
