ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To understand the effects of lasR/rhlR mutations on the biofilm formation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in vitro.METHODS The biofilms of PAEO1 and lasR,rhlR,and lasR rhlR mutants were incubated in a polyvinyl chloride tube in 0.9% saline and studied by means of scanning electronic microscopy(SEM) after three days′ incubation.RESULTS After 3 day′s incubation,PAEO1 biofilm showed a well-developed structure,whereas thin and poor developed biofilms were seen in lasR/rhlR mutant groups.CONCLUSIONS lasR/rhlR Genes play probably an important role in the formation of P.aeruginosa biofilm in vitro.
