Abstract excerpt
Four different species of coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) were isolated from polluted waters in Fez, Morocco and found to be Staphylococcus simulans, Staph. lenticus, Staph. hyicus and Staph. xylosus. Eight isolates belonging to these four species were analysed for their plasmid content. S...
