Article Synopsis
- * Multi-locus sequencing typing revealed 39 sequence types, with ST2454 and ST2459 being the most common, while around 20.5% of isolates showed resistance to oxacillin, predominantly linked to the SCCmecIVb gene.
- * The study utilized various molecular techniques to analyze these isolates and found that significant genes related to pathogenicity were present, highlighting the international relevance of the identified clonal complexes (CC9 and CC97).
The aim of this investigation was to determine the persistence of biofilm-associated antibiotic resistance developed by methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA), of different capsular types, during biofilm formation. Because of superiority of the tissue culture plate (TCP) over the Congo Red Agar (CRA) method for measuring biofilm formation, it was used to determine the persistence of the antibiotic resistance developed by the isolates in biofilms. The antibiotic resistance was found to persist for 3-4 wk post-propagation as planktonic subcultures.
