Azithromycin Inhibits Biofilm Formation by Staphylococcus xylosus and Affects Histidine Biosynthesis Pathway

Staphylococcus xylosus, a coagulase-negative, non-pathogenic bacterium, responsible for opportunistic infections in humans and bovine mastitis, has the ability to form biofilms, which are responsible for persistent infections and antibiotic resistance. In our study, azithromycin significantly inhibi...
