Fate of airborne coagulase-negative staphylococci [PDF]
Hospital indoor air can be a source for transmitting nosocomial infections in resource limited settings. This study was undertaken over two months period (February – March 2010) in Chennai, India, to 1) characterise bacteria isolated from indoor air of healthcare facility; and 2) establish whether environmental and clinical isolates are similar by ...

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.

Biotyping coagulase-negative staphylococci [PDF]
The biochemical profiles obtained with Staph-Ident (Analytab Products, Plainview, N.Y.) panels were combined with the results of adherence and synergistic hemolysis tests to define biotypes among 1,064 clinical isolates representing eight species of coagulase-negative staphylococci.

Coagulase-negative staphylococci—Emerging mastitis pathogens
Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) have become the most common bovine mastitis isolate in many countries and could therefore be described as emerging mastitis pathogens. The prevalence of CNS mastitis is higher in primiparous cows than in older cows.

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 ...

Non-susceptibility trends among methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci isolated from blood cultures [PDF]
Coagulase-negative staphylococci are a significant cause of hospital-acquired bacteremias. There is an increase of infections induced by methicillin-resistant strains, with growing resistance to other antibiotics.

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.
