Biofilm production is an important factor in most of the nosocomial infections. The increased use of indwelling medical devices has had considerable impact on the role of Staphylococci in clinical medicine (Mathur et al., 2006). Staphylococci are most often associated with chronic infections of implemented medical devices. Staphylococci are recognized as the most frequent causes of biofilm-associated infections (Robert et al., 2014). This exceptional status among biofilmassociated pathogens is due to the fact that Staphylococci are frequent commensal bacteria on the human skin and mucous surfaces. Thus, Staphylococci are among the most likely germs to infect any medical device that penetrates those surfaces, such as when being inserted during surgery.
