Assessment of biofilm formation by enterococci isolates from urinary tract infections with different virulence profiles
2015-01-07
Abstract excerpt
This study aimed to investigate possible associations between virulence profiles and biofilm formation in Clinical UTI isolates. Isolates were collected from five university hospitals and identified and characterized for the presence of virulence factors by PCR. Biofilm assays were conducted in 96 well microtiter plates by reading the OD570 after crystal violet staining. 75% of isolates had esp gene, 38.77% had as...
