To further define the role of fibrin(ogen) and fibronectin inStaphylococcus aureusadherence to central venous catheters, the amount, chemical integrity, and biologic activity of these proteins adsorbed on lines inserted in hospitalized patients were prospectively studied. Polyurethane cannulas promoted a significantly lower adherence ofS. aureusthan polyvinyl chloride (P< .01) or Hickman (P< .001) cannulas and contained the lowest amount of immunologically assayed fibronectin but not of fibrin(ogen). Fibrinogen showed an extensive loss of adherence-promoting activity on inserted cannulas, which was related to its proteolytic breakdown, as detected by SDS-PAGE and immunoblots with antifibrinogen antibodies and confirmed by in vitro studies with purified protein fragments. In contrast, either intact or fragmented fibronectin, although present in much lower amounts than fibrin(ogen), could actively promoteS. aureusadherence onto intravenous catheters.
