Colony spreading in Staphylococcus aureus.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Mar 2007

Kaito Chikara, Sekimizu Kazuhisa

Abstract excerpt

Wild-type Staphylococcus aureus rapidly expands on the surface of soft agar plates. The rates of expansion and the shapes of the resultant giant colonies were distinct for different strains of laboratory stocks and clinical isolates. The colony spreading abilities did not correlate with the biofi...
