Criteria used for the classification of isolates with respect to their biofilm formation

criteria Biofilm-formation Capacity
ODs ≤ODc No biofilm producer
ODc≤ ODs ≤ 2×ODc Weak biofilm producer
2 × ODc ≤ ODs ≤ 4 × ODc Moderate biofilm producer
4 × ODc <ODs Strong biofilm producer

ODs (average of the optical density of sample).
