Özet
Background: Via its virulence factors such as swarm differentiation, biofilm and hemolysin production, urease enzyme, Proteus mirabilis causes urinary tract infections (UTIs), especially in complicated cases. Anti-pathogenic compounds attenuate the virulence of bacteria without showing 'cidal' activity and carry the potential to be used in the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases.
