Biofilms are a serious problem, cause of severe inconvenience in the biomedical, food and
industrial environment. Staphylococcus aureus and S. epidermidis are important pathogenic …

Increasing attention has been focused on understanding bacterial biofilms and this growth
modality's relation to human disease. In this review we explore the genetic regulation and …

Biofilm formation in Staphylococcus aureus causes an increase in antibiotics resistance in
chronic diseases, including osteomyelitis, endocarditis, and wound infection. The S. aureus …

Objectives Epidemic methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) clones cause infections in both
hospital and community settings. As a biofilm phenotype further facilitates evasion of the …

We reported previously that low concentrations of sodium citrate strongly promote biofilm
formation by Staphylococcus aureus laboratory strains and clinical isolates. Here, we show …

Staphylococcus aureus and its biofilm formation are recognized as a serious clinical
problem. S. aureus is also a food borne pathogen, and little is known regarding biofilm …

Biofilm formation is regarded as one of the major determinants in the prevalence of
methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) as pathogens of medical device-related …

Four slime-producing isolates of Staphylococcus aureus were used in an antibiotic
susceptibility assay for biofilms developed on 96-well polystyrene tissue culture plates. The …

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate three methods for detection of biofilm
formation in staphylococci. Methods: For detection of biofilm formation, 152 clinical isolates …

Staphylococcus aureus is a pathogenic bacterium capable of developing biofilms, leading to
nosocomial infection and cross-contamination of foods. The current study was focused on …
