Otitis media is the infection of the middle ear, caused as a result of the infection of the fluid built up in the tympanic cavity, mainly by bacteria even though viral and fungal otitis media has been reported. The bacterial isolated from the otitis media patients are known to be biofilm producers and hence the success in causing recurrent ear infections and so the detection of biofilms becomes essential as only then can effective treatment strategy be planned. As such, this paper is dedicated to finding the best method for the detection of biofilm producers in the case of otitis media causing bacteria.
