Abstract
ABSTRACT
We explored three genes of attachment (
fbe
and
atlE
) and adhesion (
ica
) in 27 and 10
Staphylococcus epidermidis
strains involved in pacemaker-related infections (PMI) and intravascular-catheter-related infections (IVCI), respectively, and in 25 saprophytic strains. The detection rates of
fbe
and
atlE
were identical in PMI and IVCI strains, but
ica
detection rates were identical in PMI and saprophytic strains.
