Antibiotic multiresistance strictly associated with IS<i>256</i> and <i>ica</i> genes in <i>Staphylococcus epidermidis</i> strains from implant orthopedic infections

8 Jun 2007

Abstract excerpt

In this study the presence both of the ica genes, encoding for biofilm exopolysaccharide production, and the insertion sequence IS256, a mobile element frequently associated to transposons, was investigated in relationship with the prevalence of antibiotic resistance among Staphylococcus epidermidis strains. The investigation was conducted on 70 clinical isolates derived from orthopedic implant infections. Among...
