Adhesion of <i>Escherichia Coli</i> to Nanostructured Surfaces and the Role of Type 1 Fimbriae

Adhesion of <i>Escherichia Coli</i> to Nanostructured Surfaces and the Role of Type 1 Fimbriae

Bacterial fimbriae are an important virulence factor mediating adhesion to both biotic and abiotic surfaces and facilitating biofilm formation. The expression of type 1 fimbriae of <i>Escherichia coli</i> is a key virulence factor for urinary tract infections and catheter-associated urin...
