2023年4月27日 · Staphylococcus epidermidis is a common symbiont bacterium that can become infectious once inside the human host. They are among the most common causes of nosocomial infection in the United States and can lead to serious complications.

Staphylococcus epidermidis enters the sebaceous gland (colonized by Cutibacterium acnes, the main bacterium that causes acne vulgaris) and damages the hair follicles by producing lipolytic enzymes that change the sebum from fraction to dense (thick) form leading to inflammatory effect.

Staphylococci are common bacterial colonizers of the skin and mucous membranes of humans and other mammals 4. S. epidermidis in particular is the most frequently isolated species from human epithelia. It colonizes predominantly the axillae, head, and nares 5.

2023年7月7日 · Staphylococcus epidermidis is a bacterium commonly found on the skin and mucous membranes of humans. While usually harmless, it can occasionally cause infections, particularly in individuals with compromised immune systems or those with medical devices implanted in their bodies.

2022年5月25日 · Staph infections are caused by staphylococcus bacteria. These types of germs are commonly found on the skin or in the nose of many healthy people. Most of the time, these bacteria cause no problems or cause relatively minor skin infections.

2022年7月9日 · What is Staphylococcus epidermidis? Staphylococcus epidermidis is a Gram-positive bacterium belonging to the genus Staphylococcus and is the most frequently isolated species from human epithelia.

Staphylococcus epidermidis which is known as a coagulase-negative and Gram-positive Staphylococcus, is one of the five significant microorganisms that are located on human skin and mucosal surfaces with the ability of causing nosocomial infections due to the wide usage of medical implants and devices, hence until 1980 S. epidermidis was consider...

2023年4月27日 · Staphylococcus epidermidis is a coagulase-negative, gram-positive cocci bacteria that form clusters. It is also a catalase-positive and facultative anaerobe. They are the most common coagulase-negative <i>Staphylococcus</i> species that live on the human skin.

2024年10月28日 · Staphylococcus epidermidis, a common skin commensal bacterium, plays a dual role in human health. While typically harmless, it can become pathogenic under certain conditions, especially in immunocompromised individuals or when medical devices are involved.

2023年9月15日 · Staphylococcus epidermidis, often referred to as S. epidermidis, is a type of bacteria that belongs to the Staphylococcus genus. It is commonly found on the skin and mucous membranes of humans and is considered a part of the normal microbiota, which means it is a natural and generally harmless resident of the human body.
