Studies on early association of Salmonella typhimurium with intestinal mucosa in vivo and in vitro: relationship to virulence.

abstract：:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that poses a threat in clinical settings due to its intrinsic and acquired resistance to a wide spectrum of antibiotics. Additionally, the presence of a subpopulation of cells surviving high concentrations of antibiotics, called persisters, makes it virtually impossi...
