Staphylococcus epidermidis is a coagulase-negative Gram-positive coccus that is the most abundant commensal bacterium on human skin. It colonizes the entire body surface and mucous membranes of humans and other mammals globally. While normally harmless, it is a leading cause of biofilm-associated infections on implanted medical devices.
