A Study on the Prevalence of IS256 Insertion Sequence and Biofilm Formation in Staphylococcus Epidermidis Isolated from Healthy Human Skin

A Study on the Prevalence of IS256 Insertion Sequence and Biofilm Formation in Staphylococcus Epidermidis Isolated from Healthy Human Skin

Introduction: Biofilm formation mediated by a polysaccharide intercellular adhesin (PIA) is considered a major pathogenic factor of staphylococcus epidermidis. PIA production is regulated by icaADBC operon. IS256 causes phase variation of biofilm formation by inactivation of ica operon. This study w...
