Molecular genetic analysis of Bacteroides fragilis virulence factors

B. fragilis is the most commonly isolated Gram-negative anaerobe from human clinical infections, and is the most common cause of anaerobic bacteraemia. The aim of the current study was to analyse potential virulence factors of B. fragilis, by investigating the contribution of three genes putatively...
