Enterococcal biofilm formation and virulence in an optimized murine model of foreign body-associated urinary tract infections [PDF]
, 2010 Catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) constitute the majority of nosocomial UTIs and pose significant clinical challenges. Enterococcal species are among the predominant causative agents of CAUTIs.
