Assessment of microbial diversity in biofilms recovered from endotracheal tubes using culture dependent and independent approaches.

Assessment of microbial diversity in biofilms recovered from endotracheal tubes using culture dependent and independent approaches.

Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is a common nosocomial infection in mechanically ventilated patients. Biofilm formation is one of the mechanisms through which the endotracheal tube (ET) facilitates bacterial contamination of the lower airways. In the present study, we analyzed the composition...
