Comparative virulome analysis of four Staphylococcus epidermidis strains from human skin and platelet concentrates using whole genome sequencing
2024-02-29
Abstract excerpt
Staphylococcus epidermidis is one of the predominant bacterial contaminants in platelet concentrates (PCs), a blood component used to treat bleeding disorders. PCs are a unique niche that triggers biofilm formation, the main contributor to S. epidermidis infections. We performed whole genome sequencing of four S. epidermidis strains isolated from the skin of healthy human volunteers (AZ22 and AZ39) and contaminate...
