ABSTRACT
The results of studying the compounds secreted into the medium during the adhesion of Staphylococcus epidermidis to surfaces with different levels of hydrophobicity are presented. These compounds seem to be peptides with a molecular weight of 550-600 Da capable of stimulating the adhesion of the tested bacterial strain by performing, in essence, the function of Quorum sensing factors of bacterial adhesion.
