Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: While Staphylococcus epidermidis is commonly isolated from healthy human skin, it is also the most frequent cause of nosocomial infections on indwelling medical devices. Despite its importance, few genome sequences existed and the most frequent hospital-associated lineage, ST2, had not been fully sequenced. RESULTS: We cultivated 71 commensal S. epidermidis isolates from 15 skin sites and compared...
