Uropathogenic E. coli of food and human UTI origin. Association and invasion of bladder cells, and biofilm formation in uropathogenic E. coli of food and human UTI origin

Genomic characterization and study of the capability to associate and invade bladder epithelial cells, and to form biofilm in potentially uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) of animal/meat origin and urinary tract infection (UTI)-producing strains belonging to high-risk clones
