Biomolecular Mechanisms of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli Biofilm Formation

Biomolecular Mechanisms of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli Biofilm Formation

Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli are the most prevalent Gram-negative biofilm forming medical device associated pathogens, particularly with respect to catheter associated urinary tract infections. In a similar manner to Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative biofilm formation is fundamen...
