Biofilm?

Hello everyone, 

Today I learned of the use of biofilm in lieu of selective/differential 
media for the purposes of testing for microorganisms. Is there anyone 
here who can give me some information as to how this is used? That is, 
instead of doing a lactose broth enrichment and then streaking on 
MacConkey or EMB to test for the presence of coliforms, how is a coliform 
biofilm used?

Thank you for your kind assistance.

Infectionately,
Yersinia.
