A 140-kilodalton extracellular protein is essential for the accumulation of Staphylococcus epidermidis strains on surfaces.

Two distinct pathogenic mechanisms, adhesion to polymer surfaces and subsequent accumulation of sessile bacterial cells, are considered important pathogenic steps in foreign body infections caused by Staphylococcus epidermidis.
