Evaluation of Biofilm Formation and Prevalence of Multidrug-Resistant Strains of <i>Staphylococcus epidermidis</i> Isolated from Neonates with Sepsis in Southern Poland

Evaluation of Biofilm Formation and Prevalence of Multidrug-Resistant Strains of <i>Staphylococcus epidermidis</i> Isolated from Neonates with Sepsis in Southern Poland

<i>Staphylococcus epidermidis</i> strains play an important role in nosocomial infections, especially in the ones associated with biofilm formation on medical devices. The paper was aimed at analyzing the mechanisms of antibiotic resistance and confirming the biofilm-forming ability amon...
