Abstract excerpt

The colonization of respiratory tract by Staphylococcus aureus is a frequent feature of cystic fibrosis (CF), especially in pediatric patients. The formation of small colony variants (SCVs), which produce reduced amounts of alpha-toxin, is one of the proposed ways of staphylococcal accommodation in an intracellular niche. The aim of the present study was to compare some properties of S. aureus SCVs and their...
