Abstract excerpt
Biofilm formation by bacteria represents an adaptation strategy to the environment, and some special genes may lead to a strong biofilm phenotype. In this study, we attempted to find functional genes associated with bifidobacterial biofilm formation. Firstly, we evaluated the biofilm formation ability of bifidobacterial strains from six species, which showed that Bifidobacterium longum, Bifidobacterium breve,...
