Serological typing of staphylococci

Bacteriocin Typing of Staphylococci

Skalka, B.: Bacteriocin Typing of Staphylococci. Acta vet. Bmo, 61,1992: 179-187. The report describes bacteriocin typing of staphylococcal strains using the deferred method. The collection of active strains comprised 11 strains, Q of which were isolated by the author, namely 3 S. intermedius strains, 2 S. hominis strains and 1 strain each of S. epidermidis, S. simulans, S. sciuri and S. haemol...

Serological identification of enterotoxigenic staphylococci from cheese.

Single and double gel-diffusion techniques were employed to examine serologically coagulase-positive staphylococci from cheese for enterotoxigenicity. Supernatant fluid from sac cultures was examined for enterotoxins A and B. The results indicated that 9 of 155 cultures from market cheese and 7 of 77 cultures from food-poisoning cheese produced enterotoxin A, and that none of the cultures produ...

Typing of nontypable staphylococci by lysogeny.

Strains of coagulase-positive staphylococci which were nontypable with the routine typing set of phages could be typed by lysogeny with phage-propagating strains as indicators and with ultraviolet induction. About 10% of the strains could be typed without induction. About 36% of them could be typed by this method when ultraviolet irradiation was used as an inducing agent. The phage groups from ...
