The biofilm-forming capacity of Staphylococcus aureus contributes to antibiotic resistance,
but whether antibiotic-resistant strains have the capacity to form biofilms has not yet been …

The biofilm-forming capacity of 972 clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus was tested
using a high-throughput polystyrene 96-peg plate format. Isolates of S. aureus were …

Antibiotic resistance and biofilm-forming capacity contribute to the success of
Staphylococcus aureus as a human pathogen in both healthcare and community settings …

The present study was conducted to investigate the significance of small colony variants
(SCVs) in biofilm life cycle of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and …

Biofilm formation on indwelling medical devices represents an exclusive evasion
mechanism for many pathogenic bacteria to establish chronic infections. Staphylococcus …

Biofilm formation has been shown to be critical to the success of uropathogens. Although
Staphylococcus saprophyticus is a common cause of urinary tract infections, its biofilm …

The aim of the present study was to characterize clinical isolates of Staphylococcus
epidermidis, one of the bacterial species most often implicated in foreign-body-associated …

Staphylococcus aureus small-colony variants (SCVs) and biofilms are linked to chronic
infections. It is known that the presence of aminoglycoside antibiotics may contribute to the …

Abstract The Gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus
epidermidis are capable of attaching to a biomaterial surface and forming resistant biofilms …

Staphylococcus aureus is a potent biofilm former on host tissue and medical implants, and
biofilm growth is a critical virulence determinant for chronic infections. Recent studies …
