Comparison Of Biofilm-Producing Enterococcus Faecalis, Enterococcus Faecium, And Unusual Enterococcus Strains [PDF]
The present study focused on determining the prevalence of biofilm-forming ability in Enterococcus faecalis, E. faecium, and unusual Enterococcus clinical isolates, and comparison of resistance and the prevalence of selected virulence factors among biofilm-positive strains. The ability to form biofilm was detected in 13.3% of E.
