Özet

Introduction: The biofilm formation ability plays an important role in the pathogenesis of Staphylococcus aureus infections. This study aimed to investigate the biofilm production ability of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and methicillin-sensitive S. aureus (MSSA) isolates and evaluate the relationship between their antimicrobial resistance profile and biofilm formation ability.
