The potential of exocellular carbohydrate antigens of Staphylococcus epidermidis as markers of infection in bone was investigated by immunoblotting and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Exocellular antigens were prepared by gel filtration chromatography of concentrated brain heart infusion
Severe infection, including sepsis, is an increasing clinical problem that causes prolonged morbidity and substantial mortality. At present, antibiotics are essentially the only pharmacological treatment for sepsis. The incidence of resistance to antibiotics is increasing; therefore, it is critical
The epidemiology of Staphylococcus aureus infections has evolved in recent years, as this species is a major Gram-positive pathogen associated with healthcare services. The antimicrobial resistance of this species raises an urgent need for new treatment strategies. Fruits play important nutritional
The effect of hypobaric oxygen, with oleic acid in the nutrient substrate, on respiration and slime production by a pulmonary isolate of Staphylococcus aureus was investigated. Under hypobaric, but not normal oxygen pressure, the addition of oleic acid to the nutrient broth caused the bacteria to
Carbohydrate antigens are important targets of the immune system in clearing bacterial pathogens. Although the immune system almost exclusively uses antibodies in response to foreign carbohydrates, there is still much to learn about the role of different epitopes on the carbohydrate as targets of
The authors summarize the medical history of a patient with impaired healing of a wound in the sole of foot. The 63-year-old male patient had a second-degree burn in the sole of the left foot as he stepped on the hot concrete after taking off his slipper. On admission to our department, local wound
To determine whether staphylococci causing bovine mastitis are potential causes of human intoxications, 142 cultures identified as etiological agents of acute cases and 18 cultures causing chronic cases of staphylococcal mastitis were obtained from investigators in the United States and Canada,
BACKGROUND
Diabetes mellitus is a frequent underlying comorbidity in patients with Staphylococcus aureus endocarditis, and it represents a risk factor for complications and a negative outcome. The pathogenesis of staphylococcal endocardial infections in diabetic hosts has been poorly characterized,
