Biofilm Formation by ica-Negative Ocular Isolates of Staphylococcus haemolyticus
14 Nov 2018
Abstract excerpt
Staphylococcus haemolyticus is the second most frequently isolated CoNS from ocular infections and human blood cultures. In this study, we examined eighteen ocular S. haemolyticus isolates for their capacity to form biofilm and conducted detachment assay to determine the composition of the biofilm matrix and involvement of various elements in cell lysis. PCR identified the presence of biofilm-associated genes,...
