17 Ιουλ 2023 · These organisms can grow aerobically or anaerobically (facultative) and at temperatures between 18 C and 40 C. Typical biochemical identification tests include catalase positive (all pathogenic Staphylococcus species), coagulase positive (to distinguish Staphylococcus aureus from other Staphylococcus species), novobiocin sensitive (to ...
15 Απρ 2024 · Interpreting results — Blood culture detection of Staphylococcus aureus should always be regarded as clinically significant, even if only a single positive blood culture bottle is observed . Identification of positive blood cultures should prompt initiation of empiric therapy as well as further clinical evaluation.
Other infections require samples of blood or infected fluids, which are sent to a laboratory to grow (culture), identify, and test the bacteria. Laboratory results confirm the diagnosis and determine which antibiotics can kill the staphylococci (called susceptibility testing).
Structure. Staphylococci are Gram-positive cocci 1μm in diameter. They form clumps. Classification. S aureus and S intermedius are coagulase positive. All other staphylococci are coagulase negative. They are salt tolerant and often hemolytic. Identification requires biotype analysis. Natural Habitat.
Staphylococcus aureus is a major human pathogen that causes a wide range of clinical infections. It is a leading cause of bacteremia and infective endocarditis as well as osteoarticular, skin and soft tissue, pleuropulmonary, and device-related infections.
Blood cultures may be positive for staphylococcal species, even when results from other cultures are negative. Obtain blood cultures from all patients with serious infections. Deck et al have...
