Small-colony variants of Staphylococcus aureus.
Staphylococcus aureus remains a versatile and dangerous pathogen. Small-colony variants (SCVs) of S. aureus are a naturally occurring sub-population, first described nearly 100 years ago. These variants, of which there are different classes, grow slowly and have many atypical characteristics thought to be due to defective electron transport, and include minute colony forms. SCVs have been isola...
متن کاملSmall Colony Variants of Staphylococcus aureus and Pacemaker-related Infection
I caused by Staphylococcus aureus range from mild skin infections to acute life-threatening diseases such as pneumonia, osteomyelitis, and endocarditis. However, S. aureus may also cause a chronic disease with persistent and recurrent infections. Skin and soft tissue infections, chronic osteomyelitis, and persistent infections in patients with cystic fibrosis have been associated with small col...
متن کاملStaphylococcus aureus small colony variants in diabetic foot infections
Background : Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is one of the major pathogens causing chronic infections. The ability of S. aureus to acquire resistance to a diverse range of antimicrobial compounds results in limited treatment options, particularly in methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA). A mechanism by which S. aureus develops reduced susceptibility to antimicrobials is through the formation...

متن کاملGrowth requirements of some small-colony-forming variants of Staphylococcus aureus.
Nine stable, auxotrophic, small-colony-forming variants of Staphylococcus aureus were isolated. They were of two types. One type, from broth cultures containing varying concentrations of gentamicin or kanamycin, required heme for normal growth. The second type, from the blood culture of a patient who had been treated with penicillin and oxacillin, required long-chain unsaturated fatty acids for...
