Biofilm formation in trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole-susceptible and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole-resistant uropathogenic Escherichia coli

Biofilm formation in trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole-susceptible and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole-resistant uropathogenic Escherichia coli

Objective: To compare biofilm formation in trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (SXT)-susceptible Escherichia coli (E. coli) (SSEC) and SXT-resistant E. coli (SREC) isolated from patients with urinary tract infections, and study the motile ability and physical characteristics of the isolates. Methods: A to...
