AIMS: To make a quantitative evaluation of the differences in biofilm formation by Staphylococcus epidermidis using batch and fed-batch growth systems and to correlate this with production of the major biofilm polysaccharide, poly-N-acetyl glucosamine (PNAG). METHODS AND RESULTS: Dry weight measurements of biofilms formed in batch and fed-batch conditions were compared with haemagglutination titres, which measure the amount of PNAG produced. Strains grown in batch systems developed less biofilm than when grown in fed-batch systems. A good correlation was found between the amount of biofilm formed in fed-batch systems and the haemagglutination titres. CONCLUSIONS: Differences in biofilm formation and PNAG production by S. epidermidis are dependent on the availability of nutrients, with higher availability correlating with more biofilm and PNAG production. SIGNIFICANCE OF AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Comparisons of the formation of biofilms by S. epidermidis are dependent on choosing an appropriate biofilm growth system. Comparability or disparity of conclusions among different investigations will be strongly influenced by which mode S. epidermidis biofilms are formed. 相似文献

AIMS: The aim of this study is to determine the in vitro activity of allicin against Staphylococcus epidermidis and to evaluate the influence of allicin on biofilm formation. METHODS AND RESULTS: In vitro activity of allicin (diallyl thiosulphinate) against 38 strains of S. epidermidis was investigated. The activity of allicin was similar against S. epidermidis methicillin susceptible and methicillin resistant strains [minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC)90=8 mg l(-1)]. In general, subinhibitory concentrations (sub-MIC) of allicin diminished biofilm formation in the five strains analysed. CONCLUSION: The results confirm the antibacterial effect of allicin. Sub-MICs of allicin also diminished the biofilm formations by S. epidermidis. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The present study shows that allicin is active in vitro against S. epidermidis and that sub-MICs of allicin may play a role in the prevention of adherence of this bacteria to medical devices. 相似文献

AbstractStaphylococcus epidermidis (SE) is an opportunistic nosocomial pathogen that accounts for recalcitrant device-related infections worldwide. Owing to the growing interest in plants and their secondary metabolites targeting bacterial adhesion, this study was intended to uncover the anti-biofilm potential of Hemidesmus indicus and its major constituent 2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzaldehyde (HMB) against SE. The minimum biofilm inhibitory concentration (MBIC) of H. indicus root extract and HMB were found to be 500 and 250?µg ml?1, respectively. The results of time-dependent biofilm inhibition and mature biofilm disruption assays confirmed that HMB targets initial cell adhesion. Furthermore, interference by HMB in the expression of adhesin genes (icaA, aap and bhp) and biofilm components was associated with an increased susceptibility of SE to oxidative stress and antibiotics. To conclude, this study reports for the first time HMB as a potential drug against SE biofilms. 相似文献

AbstractIn vitro activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Staphylococcus epidermidis biofilm producers from blood cultures of patients with prosthetic hip infections was evaluated. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) for AP7121 was determined and the bactericidal activity of AP7121 (MICx1, MICx4) against planktonic cells was studied at 4, 8 and 24?h. The biofilms formed were incubated with AP7121 (MICx1, MICx4) for 1 and 24?h. The anti-adhesion effect of an AP7121-treated inert surface over the highest MIC isolate was studied with scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The bactericidal activity of AP7121 against all the planktonic staphylococcal cells was observed at 4?h at both peptide concentrations. Dose-dependent anti-biofilm activity was detected. AP7121 (MICx4) showed bactericidal activity at 24?h in all isolates. SEM confirmed prevention of biofilm formation. This research showed the in vitro anti-biofilm activity of AP7121 against MRSA and S. epidermidis and the prevention of biofilm formation by them on an abiotic surface. 相似文献

The contribution of in vivo biofilm-forming potential of Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis was studied in an experimental model of foreign body infections. Increasing inocula (from 10(2) to 10(7) organisms) of ica-positive strains of S. aureus and S. epidermidis and their ica-negative isogenic mutants (the ica locus codes for a major polysaccharide component of biofilm) were injected into subcutaneously implanted tissue cages in guinea pigs. Surprisingly, bacterial counts and time-course of tissue cage infection by ica-positive strains of S. aureus or S. epidermidis were equivalent to those of their respective ica-negative mutants, in the locally infected fluids and on tissue-cage-inserted plastic coverslips. 相似文献

The urease gene sequences of Staphylococcus epidermidis CNS23 were cloned and expressed in Staphylococcus carnosus TM300. In vitro translation of the cloned sequences revealed four polypeptides (60, 17, 11 and 7.5 kDa) that were associated with enzyme activity. Southern hybridisation experiments showed high homologies with the urease genes of Staphylococcus saprophyticus. 相似文献

Staphylococcus epidermidis is a clinically important opportunistic pathogen that forms biofilm infections on nearly all types of indwelling medical devices. The biofilm forming capability of S. epidermidis has been linked to the presence of the ica operon in the genome, and the amount of biofilm formation measured by the crystal violet (CV) adherence assay. Six S. epidermidis strains were characterized for their ica status using PCR, and their biofilm forming ability over 6 days, using the CV assay and a flow cell system. Ica-negative strains characterized as ‘negative for biofilm formation’ based on the CV assay were demonstrated to form strongly attached biofilms after 6 days. However, the biofilms were not as extensive as the ica-positive strains. It was concluded that ica is not required for biofilm formation, nor is the 24-h CV assay generalizable for predicting the 6-day biofilm-forming ability for all S. epidermidis strains. 相似文献

This study aimed to correlate the presence of ica genes, biofilm
formation and antimicrobial resistance in 107 strains of Staphylococcus
epidermidis isolated from blood cultures. The isolates were analysed to
determine their methicillin resistance, staphylococcal cassette chromosome
mec (SCCmec) type, ica genes
and biofilm formation and the vancomycin minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was
measured for isolates and subpopulations growing on vancomycin screen agar. The
mecA gene was detected in 81.3% of the S.
epidermidis isolated and 48.2% carried SCCmec type III.
The complete icaADBC operon was observed in 38.3% of the isolates;
of these, 58.5% produced a biofilm. Furthermore, 47.7% of the isolates grew on
vancomycin screen agar, with an increase in the MIC in 75.9% of the isolates.
Determination of the MIC of subpopulations revealed that 64.7% had an MIC ≥ 4 μg
mL-1, including 15.7% with an MIC of 8 μg mL-1 and 2% with
an MIC of 16 μg mL-1. The presence of the icaADBC operon,
biofilm production and reduced susceptibility to vancomycin were associated with
methicillin resistance. This study reveals a high level of methicillin resistance,
biofilm formation and reduced susceptibility to vancomycin in subpopulations of
S. epidermidis. These findings may explain the selection of
multidrug-resistant isolates in hospital settings and the consequent failure of
antimicrobial treatment. 相似文献

Aims: The purpose of this study was to develop a system that would allow biofilms to be cultivated under strictly defined conditions in terms of dissolved oxygen, fluid shear and to assess whether the method was suitable for the detection of respiratory activity stratification in biofilm samples. Methods: The system is a modified version a commercially available laboratory biofilm reactor and incorporates a number of features such as the provision of defined levels of dissolved oxygen, constant average shear, enhanced gas–liquid mass transfer, aseptic operation and the ability to remove biofilm for ex situ analysis during or after continuous cultivation. Conclusions: The system was shown to be effective for the characterization of the effects of dissolved oxygen on a pure culture of Staphylococcus epidermidis. The versatility of the system offers the potential for cultivating pure culture biofilm in defined, controlled conditions and facilitates a range of analyses that can be performed ex situ. Significance and Impact of the Study: The ability to provide strict regulation of environmental conditions and enhanced transfer of oxygen to the biofilm during cultivation are important, first because oxygen is known to regulate biofilm development in several micro‐organisms and second because many conventional biofilm cultivation systems may not provide adequate oxygen supply to the biofilm. 相似文献

Biofilm‐related research using 96‐well microtiter plates involves static incubation of plates indiscriminate of environmental conditions, making oxygen availability an important variable which has not been considered to date. By directly measuring dissolved oxygen concentration over time we report here that dissolved oxygen is rapidly consumed in Staphylococcus epidermidis biofilm cultures grown in 96‐well plates irrespective of the oxygen concentration in the gaseous environment in which the plates are incubated. These data indicate that depletion of dissolved oxygen during growth of bacterial biofilm cultures in 96‐well plates may significantly influence biofilm production. Furthermore higher inoculum cell concentrations are associated with more rapid consumption of dissolved oxygen and higher levels of S. epidermidis biofilm production. Our data reveal that oxygen depletion during bacterial growth in 96‐well plates may significantly influence biofilm production and should be considered in the interpretation of experimental data using this biofilm model.

The adhesion of twenty nine Staphylococcus epidermidis strains to teflon, polyethylene, polycarbonate and bovine pericardium was studied in vitro and examined in relation to the surface free energies of both bacteria and biomaterials. All S. epidermidis strains had similar surface free energies, close to that of water, and adhered better to the materials with analogous surface free energies. There was a significant correlation (Kendall's Tau B = 1000) of biomaterial's surface free energy with the number of adhering bacteria. This correlation is inverse (Kendall's Tau B = -1000) when surface hydrophobicity is considered instead of surface free energy. This indicates that in Staphylococcus epidermidis adherence to biomaterials is inversely correlated to the surface hydrophobicity of the last, being so just the opposite of that occurring with other bacteria. 相似文献

葡萄糖对表皮葡萄球菌生物被膜形成的影响及调节机制的研究 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
生物被膜(Biofilm)是条件致病菌表皮葡萄球菌(Staphylococcusepidermidis)的主要致病因素,生物被膜的形成依赖多糖PIA合成,合成PIA的糖基转移酶由icaADBC基因编码。以生物被膜形成能力不同的菌株为对象,通过研究不同环境对生物被膜形成、细菌总糖量及相关基因表达的变化,探索外界环境对生物被膜形成的影响及葡萄糖对生物被膜诱导的分子机制。有利于生物被膜形成培养条件促进生物被膜形成及多糖的表达,葡萄糖能诱导ica基因的表达和生物被膜形成,ica基因的反义寡核苷酸(ODN)能对抗葡萄糖的作用;葡萄糖作用下不同生长周期生物被膜形成相关基因ica、icaR、AtlE表达不同。表皮葡萄球菌生物被膜的形成与细菌糖代谢有关,葡萄糖通过上调ica表达诱导生物膜形成,但不需要ica基因的持续表达;葡萄糖的诱导作用不是直接通过调节AtlE和icaR基因来实现的 相似文献
