The aim of this diploma thesis is to optimize a method of interfacial rheology for testing the interfacial behaviour of biofilms on the liquid-air interface and after that use the method for studying the biofilm formation under optimal and stress conditions. For studying the biofilm formation, Kombucha was used. It is a microbial culture forming a cellulose biofilm on the interface. As the stress conditions, reduction of sucrose concentration, change of pH and change of ionic strength was used. Next, the ability of regeneration of biofilm formed on the interface was studied. The biofilm formation was occured in all cases except of increasing ionic strength. As expected, the best biofilm biofilm growth was observed under optimal condition, which means a sucrose concentration 100 g/l.
