Association Between Kinetics of Early Biofilm Formation and Clonal Lineage in Escherichia coli

Association Between Kinetics of Early Biofilm Formation and Clonal Lineage in Escherichia coli

BackgroundEscherichia coli biofilm formation has mostly been assessed in specific pathogenic E. coli groups. Here, we assessed the early biofilm formation (EBF), i.e., adhesion stage, using the BioFilm Ring Test® on 394 E. coli clinical isolates (EC) [196 consecutively isolated (CEC) in 2016 and 198...
