Characterization of Micrococcaceae isolated from Iberian dry-cured sausages

Meat Science, 2007
The populations of Micrococcaceae in different types of Iberian dry-cured sausages from central-west Spain were characterized and their technological and antimicrobial properties determined in order to evaluate their suitability as starter cultures in dry-cured sausage manufacture. Of a total of four hundred strains isolated from two manufacturers, one

Sensitivity of Aerobic Micrococcaceae to DAQ

Nature, 1967
The presence of small amounts of certain adhesive tapes in an incubator can give rise to marked inhibition of bacterial growth and induce the formation of small colony variants, especially of Micrococcaceae. DAQ, which is volatile, is the active agent in the tapes.

A phylogenetic dissection of the family micrococcaceae

Current Microbiology, 1979
A comparative analysis of 16S ribosomal RNA sequences in the Micrococcaceae shows the family not to be a phylogenetically coherent unit. In fact, at least two of its three genera are themselves not valid phylogenetic units. Species, of the genusMicrococcus are phylogenetically inseparable from those ofArthrobacter.

Sensitivity to Novobiocin and Lysozyme in the Classification of Micrococcaceae [PDF]

Journal of Applied Bacteriology, 1968
SUMMARYSensitivity to novobiocin and lysozyme has been determined on strains of Micrococcaceae classified by biochemical and physiological tests, and also on pigmented micrococci and planococci of known guanine + cytosine (GC) content in DNA. These tests confirm the homogeneity of strains within certain proposed subgroups and also the heterogeneity of ...

Distribution of Menaquinones in Aerobic Micrococcaceae

Nature, 1967
The previous article showed that sensitivity of Micrococcaceae to DAQ is probably not related to their quinone patterns. This article shows that several menaquinone patterns, possibly of taxonomic significance, may be found in Micrococcaceae. Distinct menaquinone patterns characterize certain species, notably Staphylococcus aureus.

CHARACTERIZATION OF MICROCOCCACEAE FROM THE URINARY TRACT

Acta Pathologica Microbiologica Scandinavica Section B Microbiology, 1975
Two hundred and seven urinary strains of staphylococci and micrococci were classified biochemically according to Baird‐Parker (1963) and by means of a simplified schema. One hundred and thirteen strains belonged to Staphylococcus aureus, S. epidermidis or S.

A Taxonomic Study of the Micrococcaceae

Journal of Applied Bacteriology, 1979
Recent proposals for new species in the genera Staphylococcus and Micrococcus prompted the present numerical taxonomic survey. The API 50E and API 20E identification strips have been used together with a few conventional tests to examine the Micrococcaceae.

A replica-plating method for the identification of Micrococcaceae

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1975
A procedure of replica plating is described whereby all isolated colonies of Micrococcaceae can be identified with relative ease and rapidity. The method is as accurate as the recommended procedure, but permits a more complete and economical analysis of cutaneous flora in large-scale surveys.

BETA‐LACTAMASE PRODUCTION IN COAGULASE‐NEGATIVE MICROCOCCACEAE

Acta Pathologica Microbiologica Scandinavica Series B: Microbiology, 1986
A total of 8 penicillin‐susceptible and 55 penicillin‐resistant coagulase‐negative Micrococcaceae were investigated for their beta‐lactamase production by one quantitative and threee qualitative methods. Seven of the 8 penicillin‐susceptible strains had no beta‐lactamase production; one had a very low production.

Resistance to Paromomycin, Bacitracin and Novobiocin in the Micrococcaceae

Journal of Applied Bacteriology, 1968
SUMMARYThe characteristic antibiotic sensitivity pattern of Micrococcus luteus strengthens its case for a distinct taxonomic category. Paromomycin resistance may be useful in identifying this organism.
