      <p><i>Background - </i>The skin commensal <i>Staphylococcus haemolyticus</i> is an emerging nosocomial pathogen. Despite its clinical relevance, published information about <i>S. haemolyticus</i> virulence factors is scarce. In this study, the adhesive and biofilm forming properties of ten clinical and ten commensal <i>S. haemolyticus</i> strains were examined using standard adhesion and biofilm ...

      When analysing a large cohort of Staphylococcus haemolyticus , using whole-genome sequencing, five human isolates (four from the skin and one from a blood culture) with aberrant phenotypic and genotypic traits were identified. They were phenotypically similar with yellow colonies, nearly identical 16S rRNA gene sequences and initially speciated as S. haemolyticus based on 16S rRNA gene sequence and ...
