Article Synopsis
- The study examined the ability of multidrug-resistant (MDR) serovar Infantis strains to form biofilms, which can link environmental contamination to food processing issues.
- Eighty strains were tested at two temperatures (22 °C and 37 °C) to assess biofilm production, with results showing most strains produced strong biofilms at 22 °C, the temperature found on broiler farms.
- Whole genome sequencing and PCR revealed important biofilm-producing genes, emphasizing the significance of temperature in biofilm development and its implications for biosecurity in poultry environments.
