The aim of this work was to compare the glucoseuptake of biofilms formed by four different Staphylococcusepidermidis strains as well as to compare betweensessile and planktonic cells of the same strain. Biofilm cellsshowed a lower level of glucose uptake compared toplanktonic cells. Moreover, glucose uptake by cells in thesessile form was strongly influenced by biofilm composition.Therefore, this work helps to confirm the phenotypicvariability of S. epidermidis strains and the differentbehaviour patterns between sessile and free cells.Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (FCT) - POCTI/ESP/42688/2001; SFRH/BD/19265/2004
