Susceptibility of <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> and <i>Escherichia coli</i> biofilms towards ciprofloxacin: effect of specific growth rate
1 Jan 1991
Abstract excerpt
Methods of cell culture which enable the control of specific growth rate and expression of iron-regulated membrane proteins within Gram-negative biofilms were employed for various clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa taken from the sputum of cystic fibrosis patients and of a laboratory strain of Escherichia coli. Susceptibility towards ciprofloxacin was assessed as a function of growth-rate for intact...
