[Bacterial adherence as a virulence factor in sepsis].
In the present revision we are doing a study on the bacterial adherence in the develop of sepsis. The adherence is a important phenomenon in the initial stages of infections, but when the microorganism go in the blood her presence assure the posterior union to the phagocytic cells. The administration of sublethal concentrations of antibiotics suppress the formation and expression of bacterial adhesins.
