Characterisation of Biofilm of the Chronic Wounds (Biofilm Plaie)

August 6, 2015 updated by: Institut Curie
In this prospective observational study, the investigators tried assess the presence of biofilm on chronic wound samples coming from a large cohort study of patients, whilst cross-referencing the clinical, bacteriological and wound care observations.
