Biofilm formation by ESBL-producing strains of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae

Abstract: Objectives: Biofilm production in extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae provides a favourable environment for the exchange of antibiotic-resistance genes and could facilitate widespread dissemination. We aimed to assess biofilm development in ESBL-producing E. coli and K. pneumoniae isolates and determine how development relates to microbiological characteristics and clinical outcomes. Methods: 147 ESBL-producing E. coli and 82 K. pneumoniae were genetically characterized. Biofilm f… Show more

“…Accordingly, difference in ability to quickly adhere seems to exist within isolates of different bacterial species. The biofilm production displayed by our ESBLEC collection is also in accordance with that displayed by the ESBLEC collection recently published by Surgers et al (2018), i.e., predominance of weak biofilm producers among ESBLEC.…”

“…Seriously, Klebsiella pneumoniae-caused diseases and other secondary pathogenic bacteria infections eventually result in the death of goats [4]. Thus, an efficient, sensitive, and robust Klebsiella pneumoniae antibody detection method is highly desired to guide the prevention, intervention and control of the spread of Klebsiella pneumoniae in goat-farming industry [5].…”
