State of Globe: Biofilm Formation in Staphylococcus aureus Isolates

The results of this study showed that in vitro tissue culture plate assay can be standardized for biofilm formation in clinical isolates of S. aureus based on their biofilm-forming capacity. [...]the development of biofilm is main factor of associated infections and drug resistance. S.aureus is one...

Description
Summary:The results of this study showed that in vitro tissue culture plate assay can be standardized for biofilm formation in clinical isolates of S. aureus based on their biofilm-forming capacity. [...]the development of biofilm is main factor of associated infections and drug resistance. S.aureus is one of the most important cause of nosocomial infections that biofilm formation is a most contribution to it, involved in many infections such as such as tooth decay, periodontitis, stye, carbuncle, impetigo, and pyoderma to persistent tissue infections such as wound infection, otitis media, osteomyelitis, rhinosinusitis, recurrent urinary tract infection, and endocarditis.
