Abstract

The article presents microbiological research into biofilm exclusion of uropathogenic bacteria by asymptomatic bacteriuria Escherichia coli strains. The research investigates the biofilm-forming capacity of asymptomatic bacteriuria (ABU) and uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) strains in human urine. Escherichia coli is implicated in urinary tract infections.
