polymerase chain reaction detection of enterotoxins genes in coagulase-negative staphylococci isolated from brazilian minas cheese. | for a long time, staphylococcus aureus has been always thought to be the only pathogenic species among staphylococcus, while coagulase-negative staphylococci (cns) were classified as contaminant agents. however, molecular techniques have shown that these microorganisms also possess enterotoxin-encoding genes. the aim of this study was to analyze the frequency of genes for staphylococcal enterotoxins sea, seb, sec, and sed in cns strains isolated from minas soft cheese and to assess the in vitro ... | 2010 | 20528174 |
molecular characterization and antibiotic resistance of staphylococcus spp. isolated from cheese processing plants. | the aim of this research paper was to characterize coagulase-positive and coagulase-negative staphylococci from raw milk, minas cheese, and production lines of minas cheese processing. one hundred isolates from 3 different cheese producers were characterized using molecular approaches, such as pcr, molecular typing, and dna sequencing. staphylococcus aureus (88% of the isolates) was the most abundant followed by staphylococcus epidermidis, staphylococcus hyicus, and staphylococcus warneri. among ... | 2017 | 28457548 |
