Two Variants of Staphylococcus Aureus Wood 46 (nctc 7121) Differing in Respect to Alpha Toxin Production.

Antibacterial Activity of Cell-Free Culture Supernatant of Bacteriocinogenic Pediococcus pentosaceus IO1 against Staphylococcus aureus Inoculated in Fruit Juices

Background: Staphylococcus aureus is a major food-borne pathogen worldwide and a frequent contaminant of fruit juices. This study aimed to evaluate the antibacterial activity of bacteriocin-containing Cell-Free Culture Supernatants (CFCS) of Pediococcus pentosaceus IO1 against S. aureus inoculated in fruit juices, as well as their impact on the juice sensory attributes. Methods: The orange and...

Predictive characterization of hypothetical proteins in Staphylococcus aureus NCTC 8325

Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common hospital acquired infections. It colonizes immunocompromised patients and with the number of antibiotic resistant strains increasing, medicine needs new treatment options. Understanding more about the proteins this organism uses would further this goal. Hypothetical proteins are sequences thought to encode a functional protein but for which little...

Lysis of Staphylococcus aureus by culture supernatant fluids of a species of Aeromonas.

Survey of the Lethal Effect of Ciprofloxacin and Supernatant Isolated from Staphylococcus Aureus under the Stress of Ciprofloxacin on Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus Strains Isolated from Clinical Specimens

Background and Aim: Staphylococcus aureus is gram-positive coccus that is one of the most important causes of nosocomial infections and cause cutaneous or subcutaneous infections. Among these bacteria Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are the most important. The aim of the present study was to investigate the lethal effect of a substance isolated from Staphylococcus aureus unde...
