iron limitation enhances acyl homoserine lactone (ahl) production and biofilm formation in clinical isolates of acinetobacter baumannii. | acinetobacter baumannii is an important source of infections in intensive care units (icus) of our hospitals in kerman, iran and the most frequently isolated strains produce biofilm. there is a little information about role of iron (fe) levels on acyl homoserine lactone (ahl) production and biofilm formation in this microorganism. in the present study, we investigated the influence of iron-iii limitation on ahl, siderophore, catechol and virulence factors in the biofilm forming clinical strains ... | 2015 | 25622119 |
