In recent decades, coagulase-negative Stapphylococci have been considered as true pathogen, one of the major bacterial groups responsible for hospital infection. The present study aimed to: assess the relationship between oxacillin resistance and biofilm production samples coagulase-negative Stapphylococci of community and hospital. In this sense, we have developed the following specific objectives: to identify to species level coagulase-negative Staphylococci; analyze by phenotypic test (Congo red Agar) slime production, evaluate quantitatively the biofilm production; correlate the production of extracellular polysaccharides (slime) with biofilm production; evaluate the relationship of resistance to oxacillin as an indicator of the presence of the mecA gene; evaluate the relationship between minimal inhibitory concentration and minimum bactericidal concentration for oxacillin; investigate the presence of the mecA gene, atlE and icaAD, by PCR. We studied a total of 150 samples, 50 were isolated from fomites, 50 from community and 50 isolated from blood. Regardless of origin, 14 species of coagulase-negative Stapphylococci were identified , being more frequent 42.6% S.epidermidis, 13.3% S. haemolyticus and 10.7% S. cohnii cohnii. A general analysis of the phenotypic expression of slime showed that 64% of the samples were slime producers. Of the 150 samples tested in this study, 95.3% produced biofilm. When we consider the analysis of quantification of biofilm in relation to the origins of the samples studied we did not find significant differences and most of the samples were considered moderately biofilm producers. The mecA gene was detected in 6 community samples, 34 samples of fomites and 34 blood samples. There was no significant difference between the samples of blood and fomites. However, there was significant differences between the samples from the community and nosocomial - fomites and blood (p <0.0001). Comparing the three origins insulation as the presence of the gene atlE we observed a significant difference (p = 0.0012) between them. Being the isolated blood samples which showed the highest number of samples that had the gene atlE (n = 18). From the 150 tested samples we observed the presence of the gene icaAD 46% in community samples, 56% samples from fomites and 60% of blood samples, we found no significant difference (p = 0.5750). We observed a correlation between oxacillin resistance and slime production, because the nosocomial (fomites and blood) samples showed high levels of resistance to oxacillin and mostly were slime producers. The species S. epidermidis were the most isolated and it should be noted that, compared with other species, it showed high levels of resistance to oxacillin, mostly producing slime and biofilm.
