Evaluation of modified Congo red agar for detection of biofilm produced by clinical isolates of methicillin- resistance Staphylococcus aureus

2009-06-30

Abstract excerpt

Methicillin resistance Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) notoriety is not limited to nosocomial or community acquired infection but is so much the cause of biofilm related infection. Use of highly selective or differential medium, published Congo Red Agar (PCRA) has important shortcomings such as variations in black pigment formation while the intracellular adhesion locus (ica) gene required for biofilm production rece...
