Abstract

This study is the first one to analyze a high number of isolates of Gram-negative bacilli that are the cause of prosthetic joint infection. The analysis includes biofilm development and antimicrobial susceptibility testing of both planktonic and sessile bacteria. The obtained results support the clinical knowledge about the treatment of these bacteria when biofilms are involved.
