Pour-plate method for the detection of coagulase production by Staphylococcus aureus.
A pour-plate method is described for the detection of coagulase production by Staphylococcus aureus. Either Brain Heart Infusion agar or yeast extract-Trypticase soy agar containing swine plasma was the best medium for the detection of coagulase by this method. The advantages of this method and its potential utilization in the clinical laboratory, in food microbiology, and in specialized studie...
متن کاملVariation of bound coagulase of Staphylococcus aureus.
Duthie (1954) reported that bound coagulase (clumping factor) of staphylococei is released from the surface of autolysing cells into the medium of old broth cultures. Rosenblum and Jackson (1957) noticed occasional alteration of bound coagulase and pigment production after storage of staphylococci for months to years. Decrease in bound coagulase activity of freshly isolated hospital strains of ...
متن کاملHomology Modeling of Coagulase in Staphylococcus aureus
The close correlation between the ability of coagulase to clot blood plasma and their capacity to produce disease, and the corresponding absence of this property in nonpathogenic strains, have led to the assumption that the coagulase, plays important role in the pathogenesis of disease. Currently, crystal structure of coagulase in Staphylococcus aureus remains indefinable. Thus, the objectives ...
متن کاملSimultaneous Identification of Staphylococcus aureus and Coagulase
22 A novel rapid PNA FISH method, Staphylococcus QuickFISH, for the direct 23 detection of Staphylococcus species from positive blood culture bottles was 24 evaluated in a multicenter clinical study. The method utilizes a microscope slide 25 with pre-deposited positive and negative control organisms and a self-reporting 26 15 minute hybridization step which eliminates the need for a wash step. ...
متن کاملDabigatran inhibits Staphylococcus aureus coagulase activity.
The ability of Staphylococcus aureus to clot plasma through conformational activation of prothrombin by staphylocoagulase is used to distinguish S. aureus from coagulase-negative staphylococci. We show that while the direct thrombin inhibitor dabigatran inhibits staphylocoagulase activity, the clinical use of dabigatran etexilate is not expected to interfere with direct tube coagulase testing.
