Abstract Objective: To detect biofilm formation and biofilmassociated genes of S.aureus clinical isolation. Methods: The biofilm formation was determined by semiquantitative microplate assay and scanning electron microscopy method, and both ica and sarA genes were detected by PCR in 92 strains of S.aureus clinical isolation. Results: All of 92 strains in this study could form biofilm, and carry the sarA gene; 78 strains (84.78%) carried the ica gene. Conclusion: The S.aureus clinical isolations had the ability of biofilm formation, and the gene of ica and sarA were prevalent in S.aureus.
