In this study, single and dual species biofilms of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli, two common bacteria associated with urinary tract infections, were formed in silicon coupons immersed in artificial urine medium. In single species experiments, E. coli appeared to form biofilms more easily than P. aeruginosa. In mixed biofilms, both species apparently benefited from the presence of the other, as the average Log total cells cm−2 of mixed biofilms (7.29 cells cm−2) was higher than obtained for single cultures (6.99 cells cm−2). However, the use of selective media seemed to indicate t ...
