چکیده
Different culture media were used to detect enterotoxigenic Staphylococcus aureus strains from peptone salt solution and inoculated minced meat. When recovery, reactions, and counting mistakes were considered, it was concluded that Baird-Parker agar was the best medium.

High incidence of enterotoxin D producing Staphylococcus spp. in Brazilian cow's raw milk and its relation with coagulase and thermonuclease enzymes.
In this study, the enterotoxigenic potential of Staphylococcus strains (n = 574) isolated from raw milk samples (n = 140) was determined for their capacity to produce staphylococcal enterotoxins. In addition, the relationship between the presence of enterotoxins, coagulase, and thermonuclease (Tnase) was assessed. The results showed that 19% of Staphylococcus was enterotoxigenic, being able to ...
متن کاملThe occurrence of enterotoxigenic strains of Staphylococcus aureus in foods.
It has generally been accepted that enterotoxin production is confined to coagulase-positive staphylococci, although the isolation of enterotoxigenic coagulase-negative strain has been reported. 1.2.3.4 Coagulase-positive staphylococci which produce enterotoxins have been found in 96.2 percent, 5 92 percent, 6 44 percent, 7 or 95 percent 8 of the strains isolated from food products involved in ...
متن کاملComparative Evaluation of Five Selective and Differential Media for the Detection and Enumeration of Coagulase-positive Staphylococci in Foods.
Five selective media for the detection and enumeration of coagulase-positive staphylococci were evaluated for their efficiency in the recovery of 17 strains of coagulase-positive staphylococci from foods. They were Staphylococcus Medium 110 (SM-110), tellurite-glycine-agar (TGA), egg-tellurite-glycine-pyruvate-agar (ETGPA), tellurite-egg-agar (TEA), and tellurite-polymyxin-egg yolk-agar (TPEY)....
متن کاملHigh incidence rate of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) among healthcare workers in Saudi Arabia.
INTRODUCTION Nosocomial infections are normally hospital acquired. Nasal carriage of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is very common and may be transmitted via a hand-to-nose route. The objective of the present study was to screen healthcare workers for the colonization of their nasal cavities with MRSA. METHODOLOGY The study group included hospital staff such as nurses, doctors, and technic...
متن کاملDeoxyribonucleic acid base composition and biochemical properties of certain coagulase-negative enterotoxigenic cocci.
Eight coagulase-negative, enterotoxigenic strains of cocci and one weakly coagulase-positive strain isolated from a number of different sources, including cases of food poisoning incidents, were evaluated for their relationship to Staphylococcus aureus on the basis of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) buoyant density and physiological studies. One strain of cocci produced enterotoxins A and C, two st...
