Staphylococcus aureus biofilm formation at the physiologic glucose concentration depends on the S. aureus lineage
BMC Microbiology, 10/29/09
Croes S et al. – The adherence to polystyrene surfaces under physiologic glucose concentration was dependent on the clonal lineage. Strains associated with MLST CC8 were markedly more often classified as strong biofilm former at glucose concentrations of 0%, 0.1% and 0.25%. The present study reveals that the MLST CC8 associated genetic background was a predisposing factor for strong biofilm formation in vitro, under all tested glucose concentrations.
