Evaluation of the Effect of Different Growth Media and Temperature on the Suitability of Biofilm Formation by Enterobacter cloacae Strains Isolated from Food Samples in South Africa

This study evaluated the effects of growth medium, temperature, and incubation time on biofilm formation by Enterobacter cloacae strains. The ability to adhere to a surface was demonstrated using a microtiter plate adherence assay whereas the role of cell surface properties in biofilm formation was...
