Özet: Biofilm formations of 25 S.aureus strains isolated from raw milk samples were investigated on microtitration plates using TSB and TSB media supplemented with glucose (0.25%, 1.0%, or 2.0%, w/v). Biofilm formations were monitored for 48 hours. The biofilm formations of S.aureus isolates incubated in TSB were generally found to be moderate (84%). Majority of strong biofilm formations (84-96%) were determined by S.aureus strains incubated in the presence of glucose. It was shown that the presence of glucose had positive effect on S.aureus biofilm formations.
