Assessment of biofilm formation, antibiotic resistance patterns, and the prevalence of adhesion-related genes in clinical Staphylococcus aureus isolates
This study identified MRSA strains with biofilm-forming abilities that possess adhesion-associated genes. The most prevalent biofilm-encoding gene was <i>icaA</i>. To prevent further spread of these strains, regional preventive measures are needed.
