This study of effect of the lipase enzyme on the production of biofilm from the Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria. This bacterium was isolated from various pathological samples where 30 samples were obtained, included samples isolated from urine , burns, and wounds were the most samples that gave a large number of isolates wound samples 15 samples With an isolation rate of 50%, burns followed by 10 isolates, with an isolation rate of 33.3%, 5 isolates from urine samples of with an isolation rate of 16.6%. The effect of the lipase enzyme on the production of biofilm using it There are three concentrations of the enzyme 40, 80 and 160%. The results showed that there were significant differences in the effect of the enzyme lipase on the production of biofilm. The concentration of 160% was better than the rest of the effect in its effect.
