Lysogeny In Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Microbiology, 1971
Summary Lysogenicity in coagulase-negative staphylococci was tested by incubating the strains in the presence of Mitomycin C. Among 173 strains examined, 45 were found to release phage. Twenty-eight of these phages were obtained from 90 strains belonging to Staphylococcus epidermidis biotype 1 (Baird-Parker, 1965).

Microbiological safety in the reuse of materials in home enteral nutrition: A quantitative in vitro experimental study

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction In home enteral nutrition (HEN), the reuse of packaging and administration materials beyond the recommended period, combined with inadequate hygiene practice, increase the risk of microbiological contamination. This study assessed the risk through a simulation that reproduced real‐world usage conditions and hygiene practices ...
