Co-occurrence of biofilm formation, acid tolerance, and antibiotic resistance in environmental Escherichia coli associated with lettuce.

BMC microbiology - 24 Jun 2026

Karanbash Saja, Daou Claude, Iskandar Christelle F

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Environmental niches represent important reservoirs of Escherichia coli with stress-adaptation traits that support persistence outside the host. Contaminated irrigation water and soils can facilitate transfer to fresh produce, where bacterial survival may reduce the effectiveness of downstream control measures. This study investigated the co-occurrence of biofilm formation, acid tolerance, and...
