Coagulase-negative staphylococci species affect biofilm formation of other coagulase-negative and coagulase-positive staphylococci [PDF]
Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) are considered to be commensal bacteria in humans and animals, but are now also recognized as etiological agents in several infections, including bovine mastitis. Biofilm formation appears to be an important factor in CNS pathogenicity.

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 ...

Purification of staphylococcal coagulase [PDF]
Abstract A method is described for isolating staphylococcal coagulase. Fractionations are carried out with ammonium and cadmium sulfates at various pH. The partially purified enzyme is then subjected to chromatographic procedures employing calcium phosphate.

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 ...

Microtube coagulase test for detection of coagulase-positive staphylococci [PDF]
Studies were performed to determine the sensitivity and specificity of a new microtube method for the detection of coagulase production by Staphylococcus aureus. Rabbit plasma containing EDTA was added to and lyophilized in API microtubes. Two standard coagulase plasmas containing EDTA were used in the conventional macrotube test and served as a basis ...

Antibiotic Resistance Profile of Wound Infection Isolates: High Resistance to Cephalosporins and Penicillin Among Ghanaian Patients in a Cross-Sectional Study. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Antibiotics remain among the most frequently prescribed medications in clinical practice. However, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an inevitable and irreversible consequence of bacterial adaptation to antimicrobial exposure.

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.
