Abstract：
:Biofilm-forming ability is well established as an important virulence factor. However, there are no studies available regarding biofilm formation of Salmonella Typhimurium 1,4,[5],12:i:-, the new pandemic serovar in Europe. To address this problem, biofilm expression by Salmonella 1,4,[5],12:i:- was evaluated using 133 isolates from clinical, environmental and animal origins, collected in Portugal from 2006 to 2011. Biofilm detection was performed by phenotypic and genotypic methods, such growth characterization in agar and broth medium, optical density determination by microtiter assays and direct observation by fluorescent in situ hybridization. Biofilm-related genes adrA, csgD and gcpA were detected by PCR. A socio-geographic characterization of strains as biofilm producers was also performed. Results showed that biofilm formation in monophasic Salmonella is widely distributed in Portuguese isolates and could be one of the reasons for its dissemination in this country. Biofilm expression varies between locations, showing that isolates from some regions like Lisboa or Ponta Delgada have an increased ability to persist in the environment due to an enhanced biofilm production. Biofilm formation also varies between risk groups, with a higher prevalence in isolates from salmonellosis infections in women. Therefore, the analysis of the socio-geographic distribution of biofilm-forming bacteria should be considered for the establishment of more adequate regulatory measures or therapeutics regimens, especially important due to the continuous increase of infections caused by antimicrobial resistant microorganisms.
