Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) causes persistent biofilm-related infections. Biofilm
formation by S. aureus is affected by the culture conditions and is associated with certain …

Background Since bacteria embedded in biofilms are far more difficult to eradicate than
planktonic infections, it would be useful to know whether certain Staphylococcus aureus …

Background: Biofilms are involved in many Staphylococcus aureus infections, but relation of
biofilm formation and the infection types or the clinical outcomes remain unclear. Methods …

Many diseases caused by Staphylococcus aureus are associated with biofilm formation.
However, the ability of S. aureus isolates from skin and soft tissue infections to form biofilms …

Production of icaADBC-encoded polysaccharide intercellular adhesin, or poly-N-
acetylglucosamine (PIA/PNAG), represents an important biofilm mechanism in …

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 …

Objective Staphylococcus genus comprising both Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase
negative staphylococci (CoNS) are widely distributed in nature and can infect diversity of …

Clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus can express biofilm phenotypes promoted by the
major cell wall autolysin and the fibronectin-binding proteins or the icaADBC-encoded …

Staphylococcus aureus is a major causative agent for biofilm-associated infections. Inside
biofilms, S. aureus cells are embedded in an extracellular matrix (ECM) composed of …

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 …
