Relevance of Biofilms in the Pathogenesis of Shiga-Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli Infection
The present study was designed to determine the relationships among biofilm formation, cellular stress and release of Shiga toxin (Stx) by three different clinical Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) strains. The biofilm formation was determined using crystal violet stain in tryptic soy br...
