Baicalin inhibits biofilm formation by influencing primary adhesion and aggregation phases in Staphylococcus saprophyticus

The ability to form biofilms on surfaces makes Staphylococcus saprophyticus (S. saprophyticus) becomes the main pathogenic factor in nosocomial infections. Previously, we demonstrated that baicalin (Bac) inhibited azithromycin-resistant S. saprophyticus (ARSS) biofilm formation. This investigation aims to explore the influence of baicalin on primary adhesion and aggregation phases of biofilm formation, and the treatment effect of baicalin and...
