Table 4 Correlation between biofilm and ESBL production in E. coli
ESBL detection | Strong biofilm producer | Moderate biofilm producer | Weak biofilm producer | No biofilm producer | Total isolates | R-value |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
ESBL Producer | 15 (18.5%) | 14 (17.3%) | 19 (23.5%) | 33 (40.7%) | 81 (50.9%) | 0.157 |
ESBL non-producer | 8 (10.3%) | 14 (17.9%) | 16 (20.5%) | 40 (51.3%) | 78 (49.1%) | |
Total | 23 (14.5%) | 28 (17.6%) | 35 (22%) | 73 (45.9%) | 159 (100%) |
