Platelet Activation and Biofilm Formation by Aerococcus urinae, an Endocarditis-Causing Pathogen
The Gram-positive bacterium Aerococcus urinae can cause infectious endocarditis (IE) in older persons. Biofilm formation and platelet aggregation are believed to contribute to bacterial virulence in IE. Five A. urinae isolates from human blood were shown to form biofilms in vitro, and biofilm format...
