WebOct 1, 2014 · Biofilm formation on medical and surgical devices is a major virulence determinant for Staphylococcus epidermidis. The bacterium S. epidermidis is able to produce biofilms on biotic and abiotic surfaces and is the cause of ocular infection (OI). Recent studies have shown that d-amino acids inhibit and disrupt biofilm formation in … WebAmong the 102 Staphylococcus epidermidis strains, 74 (72.5%) were Methicillin-Resistant S. epidermidis (MRSE). Phenotypic biofilm formation was detected in 20 (19.6%) S. epidermidis strains (Table 2). The icaA gene of the intercellular adhesion locus was detected in 23 (22.5%) of the 102 S. epidermidis strains. In correlating the biofilm WebStaphylococcus epidermidis is a commensal that lives on human skin. It is non-pathogenic in most circumstances. Chronically ill patients with indwelling catheters are prone to urinary tract infections caused by Staphylococcus epidermidis.This organism can grow as a biofilm, enhancing its ability to glide over surfaces (such as catheters). jc-ua-15
