Extracellular Polysaccharide Production and Biofilm Formation by Coagulase-negative Staphylococci

Coagulase-negative Staphylococci (CoNS) form a part of the skin flora and commonly cause nosocomial bloodstream and catheter- related infections. According to their relatively low virulence, it is important to detect the virulence factors of clinical isolates. The production of extracellular polymer...
