<i>icaA</i> Is Not a Useful Diagnostic Marker for Prosthetic Joint Infection

1 Oct 2004

Abstract excerpt

A collection of 99 staphylococcal isolates associated with prosthetic joint infection and 23 coagulase-negative staphylococci isolated from noninfected arthroplasty-associated specimens were screened in order to determine whether the presence of icaA could be used to distinguish between pathogens and nonpathogens. All Staphylococcus aureus prosthetic joint infection isolates (n = 55) were icaA positive. A total...
