The Staphylococcus intermedius group (SIG) includes zoonotic pathogens traditionally associated with dog bites. We describe a simple scheme for improved detection of SIG using routine laboratory methods, report its effect on isolation rates, and use sequencing to confirm that, apart from one atypical SIG strain, most isolates are Staphylococcus pseudintermedius.
中间葡萄球菌群(SIG)包括传统上与犬咬伤相关的人畜共患病原体。我们描述了一种使用常规实验室方法改进SIG检测的简单方案,报告其对分离率的影响,并使用测序来确认,除了一株非典型SIG菌株外,大多数分离株为中间型葡萄球菌。
