The Effect of Subinhibitory Concentration of Metronidazole on the Growth and Biofilm Formation on Toxigenic <i>Clostridioides difficile</i> Strains Belonging to Different Ribotypes

<i>Clostridioides difficile</i> is a predominant nosocomial pathogen within the healthcare setting able to produce biofilms. Sub-minimum inhibitory concentrations (sub-MICs) of antibiotics trigger mechanisms affecting bacterial virulence, including increased adhesion and biofilm formatio...
