agr RNAIII divergently regulates glucose-induced biofilm formation in clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus
28 Oct 2008

Staphylococcus aureus is an important nosocomial and community-acquired pathogen. Hospital infections are frequently complicated by the ability of bacteria to form biofilms on different surfaces. The development of bacterial films on medical indwelling devices, such as prostheses, often requires surgical procedures to remove the contaminated implant.
