Penicillinase production by Staphylococcus aureus strains from outbreaks of food poisoning.
In the course of the routine examination of strains of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from outbreaks of staphylococcal food poisoning in north-west England, we were surprised to find that most of them were penicillin resistant. Nine of 11 strains, all present in large numbers in foods that had caused clinically typical outbreaks of vomiting and diarrhoea, were penicillin resistant. None of the ...
متن کاملStaphylokinase production by clinical Staphylococcus aureus strains.
One of virulence factors produced by Staphylococcus aureus is staphylokinase (SAK), which enhances their proteolytic activity leading to tissue damage and improving bacterial invasiveness. In the present study we estimated the ability to produce staphylokinase by 95 S. aureus reference strains and clinical isolates from the airways of cystic fibrosis patients, from skin lesions and from infecte...
متن کاملStaphylococcus aureus strains associated with food poisoning outbreaks in France: comparison of different molecular typing methods, including MLVA
Staphylococcal food poisoning outbreaks (SFPOs) are frequently reported in France. However, most of them remain unconfirmed, highlighting a need for a better characterization of isolated strains. Here we analyzed the genetic diversity of 112 Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated from 76 distinct SFPOs that occurred in France over the last 30 years. We used a recently developed multiple-locus v...
متن کاملFood Poisoning and Staphylococcus aureus Enterotoxins
Staphylococcus aureus produces a wide variety of toxins including staphylococcal enterotoxins (SEs; SEA to SEE, SEG to SEI, SER to SET) with demonstrated emetic activity, and staphylococcal-like (SEl) proteins, which are not emetic in a primate model (SElL and SElQ) or have yet to be tested (SElJ, SElK, SElM to SElP, SElU, SElU2 and SElV). SEs and SEls have been traditionally subdivided into cl...
متن کاملEffects of Silver Sulphadiazine on Production of Extracellular Proteins by Strains of Staphylococcus Aureus Isolated from Burns Wound
Previous studies had shown that sub-inhibitory concentrations of silver sulphadiazine (AgSD) stimulated the production of Toxic Shock Syndrome Toxin-1 in certain strains (responder strains) of Staphylococcus aureus and that protease production was also affected. No changes were detected in other strains (non-responders). Extracellular proteins from eleven responder and non-responder strains gro...
