The abilities of a Staphylococcus epidermidis wild-type strain and its slime-negative mutant to induce endocarditis in rabbits are comparable.

Infection and immunity - 1 Jun 1998

Perdreau-Remington F, Sande M A, Peters G, Chambers H F

Abstract excerpt

The abilities of a parent and mutant pair of Staphylococcus epidermidis strains, the slime-producing parent RP62A and its slime-negative mutant, to establish endocarditis in a rabbit model of aortic valve endocarditis and to accumulate and adhere to surfaces in vitro were compared. Vegetation titer and infection rate depended on the presence or absence of a catheter (P = 0.020) and on inoculum size (P < 0.001)...
