Species identification, slime production and oxacillin susceptibility in coagulase-negative staphylococci isolated from nosocomial specimens

2003-04-01

Abstract excerpt

Ninety-two coagulase negative staphylococci (CNS) (forty-five of clinical origin and forty-seven of environmental origin), collected in a hospital in San Luis, Argentina, from March to June, 1999, were identified to species level by the ID 32 Staph and API Staph System (bioMérieux). Slime production was investigated by the quantitative and qualitative methods. Oxacillin susceptibility was determined by the disk di...
