Further characterization of Staphylococcus epidermidis transposon mutants deficient in primary attachment or intercellular adhesion.

Zentralblatt fur Bakteriologie : international journal of medical microbiology - 1 Jan 1998

Heilmann C, Götz F

Abstract excerpt

Biofilm formation is suggested to be the result of primary attachment of Staphylococcus epidermidis cells to a polymer surface followed by accumulation in multilayered cell clusters. Here we describe the further characterization of transposon (Tn917) mutants of Staphylococcus epidermidis O-47 having been biofilm-negative in a polystyrene microtiter plate adhesion assay. Among 5000 Tn917 insertion strains, we...
