Оценка адгезивной активности бактерий, выделенных у пациентов с инфицированными эндопротезами крупных суставов

The article presents the results of study of adhesive characteristics of 67 clinical strains of bacteria extracted from patients with infected endoprotheses of largejoints. All analyzed strains of microorganisms had adhesive characteristics. The unequal distribution by degree of adhesiveness for analyzed groups is marked. The capability to adhesiveness in Gram-negative microorganisms is higher in comparison with Gram-positive microorganisms. The Gram-negative microorganisms form biofilms more actively.
