Who Are You--Staphylococcus saprophyticus? [PDF]

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2005
Staphylococcus saprophyticus is a leading cause of cystitis in young women. S. saprophyticus shares many clinical features of urinary tract infection caused by Escherichia coli, but differs in pathogenesis, seasonal variation, and geographic distribution. This review summarizes what is known and what still needs to be learned about this microorganism.

Adhesion of Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus saprophyticus to a Hydrophobic Biomaterial [PDF]

Microbiology, 1985
The relative surface charge and hydrophobicity of 16 strains of Staphylococcus epidermidis showed large variations. For this species no relationship between the two surface parameters was found. A highly negative surface charge was observed in all seven encapsulated strains (one S. epidermidis and six Staphylococcus saprophyticus strains). The adhesion

Encapsulation, slime production and surface hydrophobicity of coagulase-negative staphylococci [PDF]

, 1983
Background and Objectives: Methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci (MR-CoNS) are important nosocomial pathogens. They may serve as a reservoir of SCCmec, the genomic island encoding amongst other methicillin resistance.

Staphylococcus saprophyticus hemagglutinin binds fibronectin [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1994
Attachment of microorganisms to host tissue is regarded as an important step in the pathogenesis of infections. Staphylococcus saprophyticus adheres to various epithelial cells and hemagglutinates sheep erythrocytes. The hemagglutinin has been identified, but a human target for this surface protein is still not known.

Time-based distribution of Staphylococcus saprophyticus pulsed field gel-electrophoresis clusters in community-acquired urinary tract infections

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2013
The epidemiology of urinary tract infections (UTI) by Staphylococcus saprophyticus has not been fully characterised and strain typing methods have not been validated for this agent. To evaluate whether epidemiological relationships exist between clusters

Staphylococcus saprophyticus Recovered from Humans, Food, and Recreational Waters in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. [PDF]

, 2017
Staphylococcus saprophyticus is an important agent of urinary tract infection (UTI) in young women, but information about this pathogen in human microbiota and in common environment is lacking. The aim of this study was to characterize S.

Characteristics of <i>Staphylococcus saprophyticus</i> Isolated from Humans and Animals. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci
Staphylococcus saprophyticus (S. saprophyticus) is an opportunistic coagulase-negative staphylococcus (CoNS) known to cause urinary tract infections in humans and is increasingly recognized in veterinary medicine. The aim of this study was to provide an epidemiological characterization of S.
