Bacteria adhesion to A549 cells. Two biofilm forming strains, LG6–2 and UK1–20p27, and two non-forming strains, LG6-7 g and SN9-4 M, were incubated with pulmonary A549 cells to examine their adhesion capacity. After 1 h of incubation, non-attached bacteria were washed and attached bacteria were quantify by dilutions and plating. Results represent the average adherent bacteria from 3 different assays (error bars: standard deviation)
