Methodology: Thirty-seven staphylococci strains were evaluated by detecting the icaA gene.

In this study we evaluated the presence of the icaA gene in strains of Staphylococcus spp.

In four methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates, environmental activation of icaADBC did not always correlate with increased biofilm production.

Mobilised ICA representatives will work with local agencies, services and affected policyholders.

Possible recanalization of the occluded ICA within the first month was evaluated.
