PCR detection of icaA and icaD genes. (A) PCR results with primers for icaA. Lane 1, molecular size markers; lane 2, absence of band with DNA from non-slime-producing S. epidermidis reference strain ATCC 12228; lane 3, 188-bp band obtained with DNA from slime-producing S. epidermidis reference strain ATCC 35984 (RP62A); lane 4, 188-bp band obtained with DNA from slime-producing S. epidermidis strain 13; lane 5, absence of band with DNA from red variant of S. epidermidis strain 13; lane 6, 188-bp band obtained with DNA from slime-producing S. aureus strain 9; lane 7, absence of band with DNA from red variant of S. aureus strain 9; lane 8, negative control (DNA template absent). (B) PCR results with primers for icaD. Lane 1, molecular size markers; lane 2, absence of band with DNA from non-slime-producing S. epidermidis reference strain ATCC 12228; lane 3, 198-bp band obtained with DNA from slime-producing S. epidermidis reference strain ATCC 35984 (RP62A); lane 4, 198-bp band obtained with DNA from slime-producing S. epidermidis strain 13; lane 5, absence of band with DNA from red variant of S. epidermidis strain 13; lane 6, 198-bp band obtained with DNA from slime-producing S. aureus strain 9; lane 7, absence of band with DNA from red variant of S. aureus strain 9; lane 8, negative control (DNA template absent).
