Biofilm production by clinical staphylococci strains from canine otitis
نویسندگان
چکیده
This study determined the species of 54 staphylococci isolates from canine otitis and their ability to produce biofilm through the Congo red agar method, confirmed by scanning electron microscopy. The most frequently identified species were S. intermedius and S. simulans. Results showed that 30% of the strains were biofilm producers.

Study on some characteristics of Staphylococci isolated from sheep sub clinical mastitis milk in Shahrekord, Iran
Introduction: Staphylococci release a large number of enzymes. Some of these, such as coagulase, beta lactamase, hemolysins and biofilms are considered indices of pathogenicity. The aim of the current study was based on the isolation and identification of Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase negative Staphylococci (CNS) strains from sheep sub clinical mastitis and examining their biofilm, beta l...

Background and Aim: Staphylococci are common pathogens of humans and livestock that able to produce a wide range of diseases. Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus aureus are the important factors for biofilm production in patients. This study was designed to determine the ability of biofilm production and the resistance pattern of Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus aur...
متن کاملNon typable-Haemophilus influenzae biofilm formation and acute otitis media
BACKGROUND Non-typable Haemophilus influenzae (NT-Hi) infection is frequently associated with acute otitis media (AOM) treatment failure, recurrence or chronic otitis media. Persistence of otopathogens in a biofilm-structured community was implicated in these situations. Here, we compared biofilm production by H. influenzae strains obtained by culture of middle ear fluid (MEF) from children wit...
متن کاملExtracellular 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 catheterrelated infections. According to their relatively low virulence, it is important to detect the virulence factors of clinical isolates. The production of extracellular polymers and formation of biofilms belong to virulence factors. We studied clinical isolates of CoNS and c...
