Deoxyribonuclease-positive Staphylococcus epidermidis strains.
Use of the agar plate test for the enzyme deoxyribonucleate 3'-nucleotidohydrolase (deoxyribonuclease) can result in frequent misdiagnosis of Staphylococcus epidermidis as S. aureus.
متن کاملThe Spread of Beta Lactam Antibiotic-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis Strains in Hospital
Bachground and objectives: Hospital surfaces can serve as reservoirs of potential pathogen bacteria. Staff hands are the most important source of transmission in hospital. The prevalence of β–lactamase producer bacteria in staff hands and hospital surfaces, increase antibiotic resistance nosocomial infection. The aim of this study was to survey the spread of beta-lactam resistance St...
متن کاملEfficacy of phage typing epidemiologically related Staphylococcus epidermidis strains.
A total of 118 epidemiologically related Staphylococcus epidermidis strains from hospital patients, staff, and fomites were examined with a provisional set of 18 typing phages. Seventy (59.3%) of these strains were typed using phage concentrations of 100 times routine test dilution. The remainder were nontypable. Thirty-six (30.5%) of the strains were of related phage types, 71/108/275A/459 and...
متن کاملBiophysical separation of Staphylococcus epidermidis strains based on antibiotic resistance
Electrophoretic and dielectrophoretic approaches to separations can provide unique capabilities. In the past, capillary and microchip-based approaches to electrophoresis have demonstrated extremely high-resolution separations. More recently, dielectrophoretic systems have shown excellent results for the separation of bioparticles. Here we demonstrate resolution of a difficult pair of targets: g...
متن کاملDiscrimination between Contaminating and Commensal Strains of Staphylococcus epidermidis (Search for Phenotypic Virulence Criteria in Staphylococcus epidermidis)
Staphylococcus epidermidis strains are diverse in their pathogenicity. Some are invasive virulent strains causing serious nosocomial infections; some are skin commensals with a low virulence. The discrimination of them is of great clinical significance. To analyze the implication of different factors in virulence, phenotypical methods were applied. Comparative assessment of the enzymatic activi...
