Strong biofilm production but not adhesion virulence factors can discriminate between invasive and commensal <i><scp>S</scp>taphylococcus epidermidis</i> strains

5 Mar 2012

Abstract excerpt

Staphylococcus epidermidis is a leading cause of hospital-acquired infections, mostly associated with the use of medical devices in immunocompromised patients. It originates from the patient's own skin flora, which is subject to severe changes as a result of selective pressure exerted by the hospital environment. This notion led us to compare S. epidermidis isolates from catheter related infections (CRI),...
