Abstract

Biofilms are an organized community of bacteria, accumulating in polymeric metrics (EPS) or also called slimes, which are produced by the bacteria itself and are able to attach to both life and non-living surfaces. Infections accompanied by biofilm formation are difficult to treat. S. aureus and S. epidermidis is the causative agent of infection in medical implants and nosocomial infections in worldwide. Congo Red Agar (CRA) method as a fairly cheap and easy phenotypic method with evaluation criteria is based on visual analysis of colony color which growing on agar medium. This study aims to identify and analyze the ability of slime formation in S. epidermidis, S. aureus, MRSA and E. coli. The test was performed by planting S. epidermidis, S. aureus (MSSA 1 and MSSA 2), MRSA 1 and E. coli (S4 and S55) which have been rejuvenated to CRA medium in petri dish by streak 4 areas. Incubating for 24 hours at 37 °C under aerobic conditions. Interpretation of the results according to the following provisions: strains produce dark, black, and black colored colonies considered to produce slime, whereas red and reddish colonies are classified as not producing slimes. The conclusions of this study were isolates of S. epidermidis, S. aureus and MRSA known to be able to form slime while E. coli isolate showed varied results.
