Antimicrobial Resistance and Biofilm Formation of Staphylococcus aureus Isolates from Febrile Cases: Findings from a Rural Cohort of Odisha, India Cover

Antimicrobial Resistance and Biofilm Formation of Staphylococcus aureus Isolates from Febrile Cases: Findings from a Rural Cohort of Odisha, India

Open Access

Figures & Tables

Fig. 1.

A) Schematic presentation of methodology adopted for the study; B) figure represents the percentage of Staphylococcus aureus isolates showing resistance to multiple antibiotics. They were divided into four groups: resistant to two antibiotics, resistant to three to five antibiotics, resistant to six to nine antibiotics, and resistant to more than nine antibiotics; C) figure represents the percentage of S. aureus isolates showing biofilm forming ability as weak, moderate and strong biofilm producers.
