The aim of this study was to examine whether Staphylococcus aureus of phage type 187 possess the genes of enterotoxins and toxic shock syndrom toxin. Sixteen phage type 187 strains were isolated from the hospital patients (12) and the carriers (4) in twelve medical centres in Poland during 1991 and 2005. Biotyping, phage typing, antibiotic susceptibility, detection of the genes of enterotoxins (sea--sed) and toxic shock syndrome toxin (tst) was tested. The results of this study showed that all staphylococci of phage type 187 belonged to the human biotype (A) and appeared to be sensitive to all of the tested antibiotics, including methicillin (MSSA). Almost all of them (93.8%) had the enterotoxin C gene and TSST-1 gene. This fact allows to consider them the strains of potentially high virulence.
本研究的目的是检测187型金黄色葡萄球菌是否携带肠毒素基因和中毒性休克综合征毒素基因。1991年至2005年期间,从波兰12个医疗中心的医院患者(12例)和携带者(4例)中分离出16株187型噬菌体菌株。对其进行了生物分型、噬菌体分型、抗生素敏感性测试、肠毒素基因(sea--sed)和中毒性休克综合征毒素(tst)基因的检测。本研究结果表明,所有187型噬菌体葡萄球菌均属于人类生物型(A),并且似乎对所有测试抗生素敏感,包括甲氧西林(MSSA)。几乎所有菌株(93.8%)都有肠毒素C基因和TSST-1基因。这一事实使得可以认为它们是潜在高毒力菌株。
