Extracellular Vesicles Influence the Growth and Adhesion of Staphylococcus epidermidis Under Antimicrobial Selective Pressure

Extracellular Vesicles Influence the Growth and Adhesion of Staphylococcus epidermidis Under Antimicrobial Selective Pressure

Staphylococcus epidermidis causes infections associated with orthopedic implants due to its ability to establish persistent biofilms, making infections chronic and hard to treat. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are part of the bacterial communication system, but the role of S. epidermidis-derived EVs i...
