This study investigated the response of different-age biofilms developed on membrane surface to a chemical uncoupler 3, 3′, 4′, 5-tetrachlorosalicylanilide (TCS). Results showed that adenosine triphosphate (ATP) dissipation caused by TCS would promote different-age biofilms detachment, whereas chemi...
