Biologically-Relevant Staphylococcus Aureus Biofilm Phenotype Characterisation And Liability To Novel Antibiofilm Drugs

Objectives: To characterise the biofilm matrix composition of a newly described Staphylococcus aureus biofilm phenotype.

Method: This experimental study was conducted at the Faculty of Pharmacy, Helwan University, Cairo, Egypt, from January 2021 to March 2022, and comprised methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus biofilm-forming clinical isolates which were allowed to construct biofilms under two distinct culture conditions; one a commonly used condition, and the other one a novel, more biologically-relevant condition. The formed biofilms were analysed for matrix composition through treatment with proteinase,sodium meta-periodate, and streptokinase. The efficacy of Cis-2-Decenoic acid and hamamelitannin on the biologically-relevant biofilms was evaluated using biofilm viability assay based on a colorimetric assay for measuring cell metabolic activity and scanning electron microscope imaging. Data was analysed using GraphPad Prism 5.01.

RESULTS: Of the 58 isolates, 45(77.6%) were methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and 13(22.4%) were methicillin susceptible Staphylococcus aureus. There was significant difference in responses to streptokinase, proteinase and sodium meta-periodate (p<0.05) among the differentially-developed biofilms in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates. Regarding the methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus isolates, the differentially-developed biofilms showed significantly different liabilities to streptokinase only (p<0.05). Mean biofilm inhibition for Cis-2- Decenoic acid was 54.27±27.93% and mean biofilm dispersion was 71.92±11.59% while the corresponding valuesfor hamamelitannin were 83.03±13.95% and 70.48±7.116% against the newly described methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus biofilm phenotype.

CONCLUSIONS: Applying biologically-relevant culture conditions on staphylococci biofilms and antibiofilm drugs is recommended.
