Background Biofilm formation is a major virulence factor contributing to the chronicity of
infections. To date few studies have evaluated biofilm formation in infecting isolates of …

Microorganisms universally attach to surfaces and produce extracellular polysaccharides,
resulting in the formation of a biofilm. Biofilms pose a serious problem for public health …

In vitro biofilms are communities of microbes with unique features compared to individual
cells. Biofilms are commonly characterized by physical traits like size, adhesion, and a …

Biofilm formation is involved in the majority of bacterial infections. Comparing six
Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates revealed significant differences in …

Bacterial biofilm formation is the prevailing microbial lifestyle in natural and manmade
environments and occurs on all surface types. Biofilm formation develops in several phases …

Several pathogens associated with chronic infections, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa
in cystic fibrosis pneumonia, Haemophilus influenzae and Streptococcus pneumoniae in …

Bacterial biofilm is an emerging clinical problem recognized in the treatment of infectious
diseases within the last two decades. The appearance of microbial biofilm in clinical settings …

Gram-negative microorganisms are a significant cause of infection in both community and
nosocomial settings. The increase, emergence, and spread of antimicrobial resistance …

Introduction: Biofilm formation represents a protected mode of growth that renders bacterial
cells less susceptible to antimicrobials and to killing by host immune effector mechanisms …

Background: Microorganisms are known to be involved in the formation of biofilm. These
biofilms are often seen in chronic wound infections, surgical site infections, implants etc …
