Combined effect of low-frequency laser and polyphenol oxidase on adhesive activity of escherichia coli strains isolated from patients wity urinary diseases

The effects of polyphenol oxidase and low-frequency laser irradiation on adhesion of pathogenic Escherichia coli to human erythrocytes and buccal epithelial cells were studied. The maximum decrease in adhesive activity of these strains was observed after complex exposure to laser and enzyme.
