Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Corynebacterium striatum is an opportunistic pathogen associated with a wide range of hospital-acquired infections, in which biofilm production plays a critical role in nosocomial transmission and pathogenicity. Although genotypic heterogeneity among C. striatum clinical isolates has been increasingly recognized, factors influencing isolate-specific biofilm formation, particularly host-derived...
