Detection of mecA gene-associated methicillin-resistance coagulase-negative staphylococci (MRCoNS) from bovine mastitis in Gujarat

Indian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2022
Exploration of pathogenic potential of Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci (CoNS), in human as well as animals, gained the importance during the past two decades.

Phage-Typing Of Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1972
THE clinical importance of infection with coagulase-negative staphylococci (Staphylococcus epidermidis) is increasing (Quinn, Cox and Drake, 1966; Verhoef, 1970). Strains isolated from patients with endocarditis or colonisation of Spitz-Holter valves often belong to biotype I in Baird-Parker’s scheme (Holt, 1969), and seem to be different in their ...

Clinical significance of coagulase-negative staphylococci [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1982
Although coagulase-negative staphylococci (C-NS) have been implicated in certain human infections, they are generally regarded as contaminants, and their clinical significance is questioned. To assess their role as pathogens, we studied 205 isolates of C-NS from wounds and body fluids (blood, urine, pleural and peritoneal fluids, etc.).

Vitamin D Deficiency and Driveline Infections in Patients With Left Ventricular Assist Devices

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Pre‐operative vitamin D deficiency was associated with a three‐fold increased risk of driveline infection in left ventricular assist device recipients. This potentially modifiable risk factor could be readily addressed through pre‐implant screening and supplementation, potentially reducing the burden of this common complication.

Neonatal Sepsis due to Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci

Clinical and Developmental Immunology, 2013
Neonates, especially those born prematurely, are at high risk of morbidity and mortality from sepsis. Multiple factors, including prematurity, invasive life-saving medical interventions, and immaturity of the innate immune system, put these infants at ...

Genotypic and phenotypic β-lactam resistance and presence of PVL gene in Staphylococci from dry bovine udder. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Dairy cows affected with subclinical mastitis can be sources of virulent, antimicrobial-resistant Staphylococci to humans because of the excretion of the bacteria through their milk.

Bacteriophage typing of coagulase-negative staphylococci [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1979
Cultures comprising the 10 species of coagulase-negative staphylococci proposed by Kloos and Schleifer (J. Clin. Microbiol. 1:82--88, 1975) were typed with bacteriophages isolated from Staphylococcus epidermidis. Although only 10.5% were typable, 50% of those identified as S. epidermidis were typed.

Enterotoxigenic potential of coagulase-negative staphylococci [PDF]

International Journal of Food Microbiology, 2013
Staphylococci are a worldwide cause of human and animal infections including life-threatening cases of bacteraemia, wound infections, pyogenic lesions, and mastitis. Enterotoxins produced by some staphylococcal species were recognized as causative agents of staphylococcal food poisoning (SFP), being also able to interrupt human and animal immune ...
