Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci
Southern Medical Journal, 1988Coagulase-negative staphylococci, long considered to be harmless commensals or contaminants, have emerged as major pathogens as medical technology has advanced. They are a major cause of intravenous-catheter-associated bacteremia, endocarditis, otitis media, and infection of joint prostheses, vascular grafts, cardiac pacemakers, cerebrospinal fluid ...

COAGULASE production is a property of all pathogenic Staphylococci and is the most commonly accepted single criterion of pathogenicity. In addition it has been shown that coagulase plays a part in staphylococcal infections. Evidence for this is indirect: first, clottable plasma inhibits phagocytosis of Staphylococci1; secondly, rabbits can be protected

Coagulase-negative Staphylococci
Zentralblatt für Bakteriologie, Mikrobiologie und Hygiene. Series A: Medical Microbiology, Infectious Diseases, Virology, Parasitology, 1987Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) are opportunistic bacteria which undoubtedly are able to cause severe infections in humans and animals. Referring to our own experimental data the actual taxonomic state of staphylococci is reviewed. Furthermore, statements concerning the clinical significance of CNS are given.

Effect of Borate on the Growth of Coagulase-Positive and Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci
Infection and Immunity, 1970Of 235 strains of coagulase-positive Staphylococcus aureus studied, 221 or 94% were inhibited by 1.5 × 10 −8 m sodium borate, whereas only 6 of 57 (10.5%) coagulase-negative strains were inhibited by the same borate concentration.

Coagulase-Positive and Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci Animal Diseases
2018Staphylococci are among the major groups of bacterial commensals isolated from skin, skin glands, and mucous membranes of mammals. Although staphylococci may colonize inner and/or external surfaces of healthy individuals, they may also behave as opportunistic pathogens as well as leading causes of community-associated and hospital-acquired disease in ...

The screening of staphylococci with a panel of 14 lectins and extracts demonstrating lectin-like activity led to the development of a rapid agglutination slide test for the differentiation of certain coagulase-negative staphylococci and human strains of Staphylococcus aureus.

Acta Pathologica Microbiologica Scandinavica Series B: Microbiology, 1983
47 staphylococcal reference strains representing 13 species were tested for polymyxin sensitivity using tablet and disc diffusion methods. Corresponding MIC and IC50 values were determined with a plate dilution assay. Coagulase‐positive strains were found to be more resistant towards polymyxin, and could thereby be separated from coagulase‐negative ...

Whether or not bacterial populations are massively enclosed in slime, it appears that antibiotic resistance, when compared to suspension organisms, is related to surface adhesion and to the specific material of the substratum. These findings are of significance in the understanding and treatment of biomaterial-localized infections.
