In the present study, the ability of bacteria isolated from leafy salads to affect biofilm formation by Salmonella Typhimurium (ST), when all these were cultured together on stainless steel (SS) coupons, was investigated. To achieve this, isolates recovered from either rocket or spinach salads were left to form mixed culture dual-species biofilms with ST on SS coupons immerged in: (i) LB medium, (ii) rocket sterile extract, and (iii) spinach sterile extract, at 20°C.
