Optimizing a qPCR gene expression quantification assay for S. epidermidis biofilms: a comparison between commercial kits and a customized protocol.

Optimizing a qPCR gene expression quantification assay for S. epidermidis biofilms: a comparison between commercial kits and a customized protocol.

Staphylococcus epidermidis biofilm-related infections are a current concern within the medical community due to their high incidence and prevalence, particularly in patients with indwelling medical devices. Biofilm gene expression analysis by quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) has been increasingly u...
