Abstract excerpt
Given that binding and internalization of bacteria to host cells promotes infections and invasion, we aimed at characterizing how various S. aureus isolates adhere to and are internalized by different white blood cells. In particular, the role of genetic determinants on the association kinetics should be unveiled. A flow cytometric (FACS) whole blood assay with fluorescently labelled isolates was applied to 56...
