Kilis State Hospital sewage water were investigated in this study. Congo red
agar, tube adherence, tissue culture plate tests and SEM analysis were

expression of biofilm producing bacteria was tested by using </span> <span style="font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;">Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method according to CLSI
guidelines. 5 clinical isolates were revealed to be biofilm producer. From of
these isolates, </span> <em>Enterococcus </em> <em> <span style="font-style:normal;"> spp. (C2)
and </span> </em> <i> <span style="font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;">E. coli </span> </i> <span style="font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;">strains
showed </span> <span style="font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;">strong biofilm producing. One of <i>Enterococcus </i>
isolates, SEM micrograph of C1 was viewed the weak adherence on glass surface. </span> <span style="font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;"> Only one from 5 isolates, </span> <em>Enterococcus </em> <em> <span style="font-style:normal;"> spp. (C2)
strain was determined to synthesis ESBL enzyme. None of strains was observed to
not produce </span> </em> <span style="font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;">metallo-beta
lactamase. ESBL and biofilm production provide an important pathogenic
character allowing protection against antibiotic treatments to <i>Enterococcus </i> spp. (C2). <b> </b> </span> <span style="font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;"> </span> </p> <p> </p>}, number={2}, publisher={Isparta Uygulamalı Bilimler Üniversitesi}
