Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci
Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 1989More sophisticated speciation schemes and the application of a variety of epidemiology typing systems have helped to clarify the increasing frequency and changing patterns of nosocomial infections with coagulase-negative staphylococci. The presence of foreign bodies, compromised host defenses, and microbial factors such as slime production may all play

Glycopeptide Resistance in Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci
European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 2000Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) were the first organisms in which acquired glycopeptide resistance was recognized. Ever since the early reports, it has been apparent that resistance to teicoplanin is more common than that to vancomycin and that resistance occurs mostly in species such as Staphylococcus haemolyticus and Staphylococcus epidermidis.

Epidemiological markers of coagulase-negative staphylococci
Intensive Care Medicine, 1993Several different epidemiological typing methods have been used in studies of coagulase-negative staphylococci; these include biotyping, antibiotic susceptibility pattern analysis, serological typing, phage typing, slime production detection, protein profile analysis, immunoblot fingerprinting and DNA typing.

Virulence factors of the coagulase-negative staphylococci
Frontiers in Bioscience, 2004Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) have gained substantial interest as pathogens involved in nosocomial, particularly catheter-related infections. The pathogenic potential of CNS is mainly due to their capacity to form biofilms on indwelling medical devices. In a biofilm, the bacteria are protected against antibiotics and from attacks by the immune

Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci and Their Role in Infection
2015With over 20 identifiable species of coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) recognized only some are associated with human infection. To be pathogenic for man it has been shown that several of these species elaborate a variety of soluble virulence factors, some of which share properties with similar products produced by Staphylococcus aureus including ...

Encapsulation of coagulase‐negative staphylococci of bovine origin
Journal of Applied Bacteriology, 1991Capsule expression was assessed in six coagulase‐negative staphylococcal strains in serum‐soft agar and by india ink and electron microscopy. Classification of strains as encapsulated by serum‐soft agar and india ink methods differed. Staphylococcus chromogenes, Staph. hyicus, and Staph.
