Reduced ability to detect surface-related biofilm bacteria after antibiotic exposure under in vitro conditions

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Antibiotic treatment of patients before specimen collection reduces the ability to detect organisms by culture. We investigated the suppressive effect of antibiotics on the growth of non-adherent, planktonic, and surface-related biofilm bacteria in vitro by using sonication a...
