was confirmed by ultraviolet spectra, both as the free acid and as the calcium chelate (Martin and Foster, Arch. Mikrobiol. 31:171, 1958; Rode and Foster, Arch. Mikrobiol. 36:67, 1960), by the melting point, and by infrared spectra. Agreement between an authentic sample (Aldrich Chemical Co., Inc., Milwaukee, Wis.) and the mold product from each of the hydrocarbons was observed in every case. The melting point data

Use of shake cultures in a semisolid thioglycolate medium for differentiating staphylococci from micrococci.

The standard diagnostic test for differentiating staphylococci from micrococci is based on the ability of the former to produce acid anaerobically in a glucose-containing growth medium. This test has been modified to provide greater convenience, easier interpretation of results, and better correlation with deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) base composition. In the modified test, shake cultures in Bre...

Differentiation of Staphylococcus and Micrococcus spp. with the Taxo A bacitracin disk.

Taxo A bacitracin disks (BBL Microbiology Systems, Cockeysville, Md.) were evaluated as a test for differentiating staphylococci from micrococci in clinical laboratories. All staphylococci tested were resistant to the disks, with no zone of growth inhibition. Zones of growth inhibition ranging from 10.5 to 25.0 mm in diameter were observed with all micrococci except two isolates which failed to...

Routine separation of staphylococci from micrococci based on bacteriolytic activity production.

A new method is described by which separation of staphylococci from micrococci can be achieved in routine laboratory use. The basis of this method is that bacteriolytic activity is produced by staphylococci but not by micrococci.

Characteristics of coagulase-negative staphylococci that help differentiate these species and other members of the family Micrococcaceae.

One hundred reference strains and 1,240 clinical isolates representing 26 species of the family Micrococcaceae were used to evaluate the potential of tests for synergistic hemolysis, adherence to glass, pyroglutamyl-beta-naphthylamide hydrolysis, and susceptibility to a set of five antimicrobial agents for differentiating these species and strains within the species. Sixty-eight percent of the ...
