Relationships between Virulence Factors and Antimicrobial Resistance among Isolated from Urinary Tract Infections and Commensal Isolates in Tehran, Iran

Objectives Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) are the major cause of urinary tract infections (UTIs). Here, we determined whether sensitivity to antibiotics was related to the prevalence of iron scavenging genes, or to biofilm and hemolysis formation. Methods A total of 110 UPEC and 30 E coli iso...
