Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci [PDF]
SUMMARYThe definition of the heterogeneous group of coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) is still based on diagnostic procedures that fulfill the clinical need to differentiate betweenStaphylococcus aureusand those staphylococci classified historically as being less or nonpathogenic.

Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci Pathogenomics [PDF]
Coagulase-negative Staphylococci (CoNS) are skin commensal bacteria. Besides their role in maintaining homeostasis, CoNS have emerged as major pathogens in nosocomial settings. Several studies have investigated the molecular basis for this emergence and identified multiple putative virulence factors with regards to Staphylococcus aureus pathogenicity ...

Staphylococci are frequently related to food poisoning outbreaks that are caused by their enterotoxins. The enterotoxins production is highly correlated to coagulase production, which one is detected in identification of pathogenic strains.

Investigating the antibiotic resistance pattern of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from clinical samples of patients hospitalized in the special care departments of Ahvaz teaching hospitals [PDF]
One of the most significant harmful microorganisms is Staphylococcus aureus. Due to the rise in the resistance of this bacteria to antibiotics and the lengthening of hospitalized patients' treatments, one of the causes of infection and mortality among ...

Contribution of Coagulase and Its Regulator SaeRS to Lethality of CA-MRSA 923 Bacteremia
Coagulase is a critical factor for distinguishing Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus. Our previous studies demonstrated that the null mutation of coagulase (coa) or its direct regulator, SaeRS, significantly enhanced the ability ...

Fecal non-aureus Staphylococci are a potential cause of bovine intramammary infection [PDF]
The presence of non-aureus staphylococci (NAS) in bovine rectal feces has recently been described. Similar to other mastitis causing pathogens, shedding of NAS in the environment could result in intramammary infection.
