Evaluation of methods for differentiation of coagulase-positive staphylococci.

The purpose of this study was to determine the minimum number of tests that could be used to differentiate between the coagulase-positive strains of staphylococcus: Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus hyicus, and Staphylococcus intermedius. Eighty coagulase-positive strains of each of the three species were examined. The five tests conducted were growth on modified Baird-Parker agar, growth o...

Multiplex-PCR method for species identification of coagulase-positive staphylococci.

In veterinary medicine, coagulase-positive staphylococci (CoPS) other than Staphylococcus aureus have frequently been misidentified as being S. aureus strains, as they have several phenotypic traits in common. There has been no reliable method to distinguish among CoPS species in veterinary clinical laboratories. In the present study, we sequenced the thermonuclease (nuc) genes of staphylococca...

Staining of coagulase-positive staphylococci with fluorescent antisera.

The fluorescent antibody staining technique was adapted by i\Ioody, Goldman, and Thomason (J. Bacteriol., 72, 357, 1956) for the identification of Mllalleomyces pseudomallei and has been used to identify additional microorganisms. This note reports the application of the direct fluorescent staining technique to the detection and identification of coagulase-positive staphylococci. Cowan (J. Path...
