Characterization of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus Isolates from Fitness Centers in Memphis Metropolitan Area, USA [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 Indoor skin-contact surfaces of public fitness centers may serve as reservoirs of potential human transmission of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). We found a high prevalence of multi-drug resistant (MDR)-MRSA of CC59 lineage harboring a variety of extracellular toxin genes from surface swab samples collected from inanimate surfaces ...

Genetic transfer in Staphylococcus: a case study of 13 genomes [PDF]
arXiv, 2007 The widespread presence of antibiotic resistance and virulence among Staphylococcus isolates has been attributed to lateral genetic transfer (LGT) between different strains or species. However, there has been very little study of the extent of LGT in Staphylococcus species using a phylogenetic approach, particularly of the units of such genetic ...

Description of a New Species of the Genus Staphylococcus: Staphylococcus carnosus [PDF]
International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1982 From dry sausage, a new species, Staphylococcus carnosus, has been isolated and described. The new species is established primarily on the basis of its deoxyribonucleic acid-deoxyribonucleic acid hybridization relationships, its biochemical reactions, and its cell wall composition. The type strain of this species is DSM 20501.

Susceptibility of Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus to Vancomycin using Liposomal Drug Delivery System [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Staphylococcus aureus responsible for nosocomial infections is a significant threat to the public health. The increasing resistance of S.aureus to various antibiotics has drawn it to a prime focus for research on designing an appropriate drug delivery system.

Center Manifold and Lie Symmetry Calculations on a Quasi-chemical Model for Growth-death Kinetics in Food [PDF]
arXiv, 2007 Food scientists at the U.S. Army's Natick Solider Center have developed a model for the lifecyle of the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus in intermediate moisture bread. In this article, we study this model using dynamical systems and Lie symmetry methods. We calculate center manifolds and Lie symmetries for different cases of parameter values and compare

Social network analysis of Staphylococcus aureus carriage in a general youth population [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Staphylococcus aureus nasal carriage increases risk of infection and has been associated with lifestyle behavior and biological host characteristics. We used social network analysis to evaluate whether contacts have the same S. aureus genotype, or whether contagiousness is an indirect effect of contacts sharing the same lifestyle or characteristics ...

The Frequency of Candida and Staphylococcus Colonization in the Oral Cavity of the Elderly
Medical Laboratory Journal, 2007 Background and objectives: Poor oral hygiene in elderly people increases the colonization of opportunistic pathogens such as Candida and Staphylococci. The presence of yeasts and bacteria in the oral cavity of elderly people can be harmful and in certain

Joint Application of the Target Trial Causal Framework and Machine Learning Modeling to Optimize Antibiotic Therapy: Use Case on Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections due to Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Bacterial infections are responsible for high mortality worldwide. Antimicrobial resistance underlying the infection, and multifaceted patient's clinical status can hamper the correct choice of antibiotic treatment. Randomized clinical trials provide average treatment effect estimates but are not ideal for risk stratification and optimization of ...

Nippon Saikingaku Zasshi, 1961 We studied nutrition requirements of small colony mutants ofStaph. aureus, that are resistant to 10, 000γ/ml of SM, and also the resistance against SM, of large colony strain arising out of reverse mutation, and obtained the following results.1. When cultured in the media containing hemoglobin, glutamic acid, glucose, glycerin, filtrate of live ...
