Comparative genomic analysis of resistance and virulence genes in staphylococcus epidermidis and their impact on clinical outcome of musculoskeletal infections

Abstract Staphylococcus epidermidis is an opportunistic commensal cutaneous biofilm-producing agent frequently causing musculoskeletal infections (MSI) with/without implants. This study was design to evaluate phenotypic and genomic relatedness between commensal skin and MSI S. epidermidis isolates a...
