Abstract: Background: Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) isolates, have a wide variety of virulence factors to promote colonization and survival in the urinary tract. This study aimed to evaluate adhesin genes, biofilm formation ability, antibiotic resistance profiles of UPEC strains, and the related risk factors in patients with UTIs caused by drug-resistant UPEC. Methodology: A total of 105 UPEC isolates were evaluated for biofilm formation using 96-well microtiter plates, the presence of adhesin genes by PCR assay… Show more
