Background and aim: The ability to form biofilm is increasingly recognized as an important pathogenic factor in Staphylococcus epidermidis. However, the role of biofilm determinants in biofilm formation is very contradictory and diverse. The present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the polymorphism and pathogenic genes of Staphylococcus epidermidis strains isolated from clinical samples.
