Abstract: We report on an investigation into a common problem in microbiology laboratories, which is associated with the difficulty of distinguishing/recognising different strains of the genus <em>Staphylococcus</em>. We demonstrate the potential of Raman spectroscopy as a rapid techniques allowing for the identification of different isolates for the detection of biofilm-positive and biofilm-negative <em>Staphylococcus epidermidis</em> strains. For this, the recorded spectra were interpreted using the approach of principal component analysis
