Abstract excerpt

The formation of adherent multilayered biofilms embedded into a glycocalyx represents an essential factor in the pathogenesis of Staphylococcus epidermidis biomaterial-related infections. Using biofilm-producing S. epidermidis 1457 and transposon Tn917 carried on plasmid pTV1ts, we isolated nine isogenic biofilm-negative transposon mutants. Transduction by S. epidermidis phage 71 was used to prove the genetic...
