Persistent Infection with Small Colony Variant Strains of Staphylococcus aureus in Patients with Cystic Fibrosis

1998-04-01

Abstract excerpt

In a 34-month prospective study to determine the prevalence of Staphylococcus aureus small colony variants (SCVs) in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients, S. aureus SCVs or SCVs plus normal S. aureus were recovered from 26 of 78 patients; 27 patients harbored only normal S. aureus. By pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, clonal identity was demonstrated of SCV and normal strains isolated at the same time and of multiple S....
