Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 08/19/09
Harriott MM et al. – S. aureus matrix staining revealed a different phenotype in polymicrobial versus monomicrobial biofilms, suggesting that S. aureus may become coated in the matrix secreted by C. albicans. S. aureus resistance to vancomycin was enhanced within the polymicrobial biofilm, required viable C. albicans, and was in part mediated by C. albicans matrix. However, the growth or sensitivity to amphotericin B of C. albicans is not altered in the polymicrobial biofilm.
