Biofilm Formation by Shiga Toxin-Producing <i>Escherichia coli</i> on Stainless Steel Coupons as Affected by Temperature and Incubation Time

Biofilm Formation by Shiga Toxin-Producing <i>Escherichia coli</i> on Stainless Steel Coupons as Affected by Temperature and Incubation Time

Forming biofilm is a strategy utilized by Shiga toxin-producing <i>Escherichia coli</i> (STEC) to survive and persist in food processing environments. We investigated the biofilm-forming potential of STEC strains from 10 clinically important serogroups on stainless steel at 22 &#176;...
