Assessment of different methods for the detection of biofilm production in coagulase-negative staphylococci isolated from blood cultures of newborns
Abstract INTRODUCTION: Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) are a frequent cause of bacteremia, especially in neonates. The major virulence determinant in CoNS is the ability to produce biofilms, which is conferred by the icaADBC genes. This study aimed to assess different methods for the detect...
