Characterization of biofilm production in different strains of Acinetobacter baumannii and the effects of chemical compounds on biofilm formation
Acinetobacter baumannii, an important emerging pathogen of nosocomial infections, is known for its ability to form biofilms. Biofilm formation increases the survival rate of A. baumannii on dry surfaces and may contribute to its persistence in the hospital environment, which increases the probabilit...
