Cell surface hydrophobicity and adherence of a strain of group B streptococci during the post-antibiotic effect of penicillin Hidrofobicidade de superfície celular e aderência de uma estirpe de estreptococos do grupo B durante o efeito pós-antibiótico da penicilina

Cell surface hydrophobicity and adherence of a strain of group B streptococci during the post-antibiotic effect of penicillin Hidrofobicidade de superfície celular e aderência de uma estirpe de estreptococos do grupo B durante o efeito pós-antibiótico da penicilina

The minimum inhibitory concentration and post-antibiotic effects of an antimicrobial agent are parameters to be taken into consideration when determining its dosage schedules. The in vitro post-antibiotic effects on cell surface hydrophobicity and bacterial adherence were examined in one strain of g...
