Does Staphylococcus Aureus Nasal Colonization Involve Biofilm Formation?

1 May 2011

Abstract excerpt

The human anterior nares are used by Staphylococcus aureus as the major colonization site in 20-30% of the human population. Eradication of S. aureus carriage can significantly reduce the numbers of nosocomial infections. However, the interactions governing the colonization process have remained elusive and it has been debated whether S. aureus adopts a biofilm-like state in the nose. We summarize recent studies...
