Two coagulase-variant forms of Staphylococcus aureus were isolated from blood cultures of a patient with infective endocarditis. The coagulase-positive isolate was hemolytic, whereas the coagulase-negative isolate was nonhemolytic. All other properties examined were identical in both strains. Since coagulase-negative S. aureus strains have been isolated from clinical specimens, laboratories should consider using a combination of other biological properties along with coagulase production for the identification of S. aureus.
从一名感染性心内膜炎患者的血培养物中分离出两种凝固酶变异形式的金黄色葡萄球菌。凝固酶阳性分离株具有溶血活性,而凝固酶阴性分离株无溶血活性。在两种菌株中检测的所有其他特性均相同。由于已从临床标本中分离出凝固酶阴性的金黄色葡萄球菌菌株,实验室应考虑结合其他生物学特性以及凝固酶产生情况来鉴定金黄色葡萄球菌。
