Staphylococcus epidermidis is a ubiquitous colonizer of human skin and a common cause of medical device-associated infections. The extent to which the population genetic structure of S. epidermidis distinguishes commensal from pathogenic isolates is unclear. Previously, Bayesian clustering of 437 multilocus sequence types (STs) in the international database revealed a population structure of si...

Staphylococcus epidermidis is a commensal bacterium which widely colonizes in human skin and mucous membrane and rarely causes clinically manifested infections. S. epidermidis surface protein I (SesI) is considered to be the major virulence factor of S. epidermidis infection, but its pathogenesis is not clear. Here, we demonstrated that the prevalence of sesI among S. epidermidis invasive isola...

Background Staphylococcus aureus ( S. ) is the most common causative agent of burn wound infection, that often leads to high morbidity and mortality. However, there not enough knowledge about molecular epidemiology antimicrobial susceptibility isolates from infections in Fujian, China. Methods Between 2016 2021, 90 were collected China, including 59 methicillin-resistant (MRSA) strains 31 methi...

BACKGROUND Infection with Staphylococcus aureus was initially considered a major problem in hospitals, but over the last few decades the incidence of community-acquired infection has also increased. Paper currency has recently been identified as another mode of spread by which community-acquired S. aureus infection may be transmitted, since paper currency is frequently transferred from one pers...

BACKGROUND Staphylococcus lugdunensis is a member of coagulase-negative staphylococci, which has the potential to cause serious infections, such as endocarditis, bone and joint infections, and septicemia. Differences in phenotypic/genotypic characterization may be linked to different diseases. METHODS Genotypes of 11 S. lugdunensis isolates from bacteremia were determined by pulsed field gel ...

background: clindamycin inducible resistant staphylococcus aureus (s.aureus) isolates can cause failure in treatment with this antibiotic. biofilm production via polysaccharide intercellular adhesion (pia) contributes in the colonization of s. aureus, resulting in the initiation of different diseases. the aim of this study was to detect icaadbc genes among isolates of s.aureus with inducible re...

Antimicrobial resistance are associated with several virulence factors such as biofilm. The biofilm formation ability of S. aureus complicates effective therapeutic management infections. In this research, we intend to observe in using two vitro phenotypic methods: tissue culture plate and Congo red agar well genes Ica A B & D 16SrRNA. total 150 presumptive coagulase positive staphylococcal...

Objective(s): The present study investigated the prevalence of genes encoding for exotoxins, adhesion and biofilm factors in Staphylococcus aureus isolates obtained from samples in a referral burn hospital in Tehran, Iran.Materials and Methods: S. aureus isolates obtained from patients, personnel and surfaces in the wards of a burn hospi...

Objective(s): Staphylococcus aureus can cause several infections. Its capability to form biofilm has been reported to be a vital property involved in the bacteria’s pathogenesis. Various genes contributing to biofilm formation have not yet been completely clarified. This study was designed to evaluate the factors influencing adherence and biofilm formation in S. aureus...
