Persistent and relapsing infections associated with small-colony variants of Staphylococcus aureus.

Clinical infectious diseases : an official publication of the Infectious Diseases Society of America - 1 Jan 1995

Abstract excerpt

Small-colony variants (SCVs) of Staphylococcus aureus were cultured from five patients with persistent and relapsing infections. All five SCV strains were nonhemolytic and nonpigmented and grew very slowly on routine culture media in an ambient atmosphere. In several instances, these phenotypic characteristics led to the initial misidentification of the organisms in the clinical microbiology laboratory. All four...
