Development of the novel chromogenic screening medium for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2014
MRSA-chrom, a novel chromogenic screening agar medium for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), was developed. There were all MRSA strains recovered in 24h as a specific blue-colored colony among 130 microbes including 42 MRSA strains. MRSA-chrom showed the highest detection ratio among 4 commercially available selective media using 50 ...

Development of a PCR test for Staphylococcus chromogenes detection in caprine milk

Research in Veterinary Science
Subclinical mastitis, often caused by Staphylococcus chromogenes, is related to milk quality and productivity loss in goats. The correct identification of the pathogen causing the infection allows a more effective treatment strategy. The objective of this study was to develop a specific PCR test for S.

Interaction of Staphylococcus hyicus and an inhibitor producing strain of Staphylococcus chromogenes on the skin of gnotobiotic piglets

Veterinary Dermatology, 1990
Abstract— The effects of an inhibitor‐producing strain of Staphylococcus chromogenes on the colonisation and disease produced by virulent and avirulent strains of Staphylococcus hyicus were examined. In the presence of S. chromogenes the colonisation of the virulent strain was reduced one thousand fold and the onset of lesions was delayed by 7 days ...

[A chromogenic method for rapid identification of Staphylococcus aureus].

Annales de biologie clinique, 1999
Staphylococcus aureus is responsible for septicaemia and serious nosocomial infections. A rapid and specific identification of this species is of great importance in clinical microbiology. Current methods for S. aureus identification require a 18 to 24 h-incubation.

Components in brain heart infusion selective for chromogenic variants of Staphylococcus aureus

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1970
Large numbers of chromogenic variants were isolated from cultures of a parent strain of Staphylococcus aureus growing in the dialysate but not in the residue of brain heart infusion (Difco). Gas–liquid chromatographic analysis of the dialysate detected 18 amino acids in this medium.

Evaluation of S. aureus ID, a Chromogenic Agar Medium for the Detection of Staphylococcus aureus

Infection, 2006
Screening for staphylococci among various patient populations has become important for appropriate therapeutic management and for control of nosocomial infections. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the in vitro sensitivity and specificity of a chromogenic agar medium, S.

Rapid and direct staphylocoagulase assay that uses a chromogenic substrate for identification of Staphylococcus aureus

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1981
A rapid and direct assay of staphylocoagulase that uses chromogenic substrate Chromozym TH was developed for the routine identification of Staphylococcus aureus. False-positive and false-negative reactions were eliminated by measuring the activity of staphylocoagulase-prothrombin complex directly. The method was compared with three clotting assays. The

Evaluation of chromogenic meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus media: sensitivity versus turnaround time

Journal of Hospital Infection, 2012
Chromogenic media offer the potential for improved detection of meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Incubation times in a clinical setting vary, generally between 16 and 48 h.To investigate the effects of incubation time on the performance of commercial chromogenic MRSA media.We initially compared the early recovery of MRSA isolates from

Optimal detection of Staphylococcus aureus from clinical specimens using a new chromogenic medium

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2004
The new chromogenic medium CHROMagar Staph aureus (CASA) was evaluated for its ability to detect and presumptively identify Staphylococcus aureus. Nine hundred forty-two clinical specimens (742 wound, 200 sputum and bronchoalveolar lavage) were cultured on CASA, tryptic soy blood agar (TSBA), and mannitol salt agar (MSA). Of the 153 S.

Identification and antimicrobial susceptibility of Staphylococcus chromogenes isolates from intramammary infections of dairy cows

Veterinary Microbiology, 2002
Staphylococcus chromogenes is a highly prevalent species in subclinical mastitis with a well-established impact on somatic cell count. Few data are available on its antimicrobial susceptibility. The objective of this study was three-fold: (1) to evaluate simple identification tests by comparing them with a genomic method; (2) to determine minimal ...
