Comparison of Gene Expression Profiles of Uropathogenic <i>Escherichia Coli</i> CFT073 after Prolonged Exposure to Subinhibitory Concentrations of Different Biocides

Biocides are chemical compounds widely used for sterilization and disinfection. The aim of this study was to examine whether exposure to subinhibitory biocide concentrations influenced transcriptional expression of genes that could improve a pathogen&#8217;s drug resistance or fitness. We used D...
