Staphylococcus intermedius, a veterinary flora and pathogen, has recently been isolated from humans with infected dog bite wounds. The frequency of S. intermedius as a human nasopharyngeal flora was determined by culturing samples from 144 veterinary college staff members. This bacterium was isolated from only one individual (0.7%). It appears that S. intermedius is a true zoonotic opportunistic pathogen.
中间型葡萄球菌是一种存在于兽医领域的菌群和病原体,最近已从被狗咬伤且伤口感染的人类身上分离出来。通过对144名兽医学院工作人员的样本进行培养,确定了中间型葡萄球菌作为人类鼻咽菌群的出现频率。仅从一名个体(0.7%)中分离出了这种细菌。看来中间型葡萄球菌是一种真正的人畜共患机会致病菌。
