Staphylococcus Epidermids
''Staphylococcus'', from Ancient Greek σταφυλή (''staphulḗ''), meaning "bunch of grapes", and (''kókkos''), meaning "kernel" or " Kermes", is a genus of Gram-positive bacteria in the family Staphylococcaceae from the order Bacillales. Under the microscope, they appear spherical (cocci), and form in grape-like clusters. ''Staphylococcus'' species are facultative anaerobic organisms (capable of growth both aerobically and anaerobically). The name was coined in 1880 by Scottish surgeon and bacteriologist Alexander Ogston (1844–1929), following the pattern established five years earlier with the naming of ''Streptococcus''. It combines the prefix "staphylo-" (from ), and suffixed by the (from ). Staphylococcus was one of the leading infections in hospitals and many strains of this bacterium have become antibiotic resistant. Despite strong attempts to get rid of them, staphylococcus bacteria stay present in hospitals, where they can infect people who are most at risk ...

Scanning Electron Micrograph
A scanning electron microscope (SEM) is a type of electron microscope that produces images of a sample by scanning the surface with a focused beam of electrons. The electrons interact with atoms in the sample, producing various signals that contain information about the surface topography and composition. The electron beam is scanned in a raster scan pattern, and the position of the beam is combined with the Intensity (physics), intensity of the detected signal to produce an image. In the most common SEM mode, secondary electrons emitted by atoms excited by the electron beam are detected using a secondary electron detector (Everhart–Thornley detector). The number of secondary electrons that can be detected, and thus the signal intensity, depends, among other things, on specimen topography. Some SEMs can achieve resolutions better than 1 Nanometre, nanometer. Specimens are observed in high vacuum in a Convention (norm), conventional SEM, or in low vacuum or wet conditions in ...

Staphylococcus Epidermidis
''Staphylococcus epidermidis'' is a Gram-positive bacterium, and one of over 40 species belonging to the genus ''Staphylococcus''. It is part of the human flora, normal human microbiota, typically the skin flora, skin microbiota, and less commonly the mucosal microbiota and also found in marine sponges. It is a facultative anaerobic bacteria. Although ''S. epidermidis'' is not usually Pathogenic bacteria, pathogenic, patients with compromised immune systems are at risk of developing infection. These infections are generally Hospital-acquired infection, hospital-acquired. ''S. epidermidis'' is a particular concern for people with catheters or other surgical implants because it is known to form biofilms that grow on these devices. Being part of the normal skin microbiota, ''S. epidermidis'' is a frequent contaminant of specimens sent to the diagnostic laboratory. Some strains of ''S. epidermidis'' are highly salt tolerant and commonly found in marine environments. S.I. Paul et al ...

Staphylococcus Devriesei
''Staphylococcus devriesei'' is a Gram-positive, coagulase-negative member of the bacterial genus ''Staphylococcus'' consisting of clustered cocci. It was originally isolated from cow's milk and teats, and on the basis of 16S ribosomal RNA 16S ribosomal RNA (or 16 S rRNA) is the RNA component of the 30S subunit of a prokaryotic ribosome ( SSU rRNA). It binds to the Shine-Dalgarno sequence and provides most of the SSU structure. The genes coding for it are referred to as 16S ... sequence, is most genetically similar to ''S. haemolyticus'', ''S. hominis'', and ''S. lugdunensis''. More recent studies have found the species on cow teat skin, but not commonly in milk, suggesting this commensal bacterium does not generally flow into milk. References External linksUniprot Taxonomy

Staphylococcus Delphini
''Staphylococcus delphini'' is a Gram-positive, coagulase-positive member of the bacterial genus ''Staphylococcus'' consisting of single, paired, and clustered cocci (round bacteria). Strains of this species were originally isolated from aquarium-raised dolphins suffering from skin lesions. History The first strains of ''Staphylococcus delphini'' were discovered originally in 1975 when two strains were isolated from dolphins suffering from infected wounds. Based on both phenetic and genomic data, the basis of the new species ''Staphylococcus delphini'' was established. ''Staphylococcus delphini'' was originally distinguished other staphylococci by its production of coagulase, phosphatase, and heat-labile deoxyribonuclease; its carbohydrate reaction pattern; its bacteriolytic activity pattern; its profile of penicillin-binding proteins; and the bacteria's fairly large ratio of G + C nucleotides in its genome. Microbiology ''Staphylococcus delphini'' is a coagulase-positive b ...

Staphylococcus Cornubiensis
''Staphylococcus cornubiensis'' is a species of Gram-positive cocci in the ''Staphylococcus intermedius'' Group (SIG): a group of genetically and phenotypically similar bacterial species that were previously identified as '' S. intermedius''. The bacterium was first isolated from a human skin infection in Cornwall, United Kingdom. However, its presence in other species and/or pathologies has yet to be discussed in the literature. Another SIG bacterium, '' S. pseudintermedius,'' has also been implicated in cutaneous infections in humans–as a result of zoonotic transmission from domestic animals. The other SIG species have been isolated from various wild and domestic animals; such as dogs, cats, horses, camels, and dolphins, among others. Discovery ''S. cornubiensis'' was first described in a 2018 paper that discussed improved methods of detecting SIG species. The sample of the bacterium was collected in Cornwall, United Kingdom from a 64-year-old man with cellulitis Cellul ...

Staphylococcus Condimenti
''Staphylococcus condimenti'' is a Gram-positive, coagulase-negative member of the bacterial genus ''Staphylococcus'' consisting of single, paired, and clustered cocci. Strains of this species were originally isolated from fermenting soy sauce mash and are positive for catalase, urease, arginine dihydrolase, nitrate reductase, beta-galactosidase, and phosphatase activity. Unlike some clinical ''Staphylococcus'' isolates and some food-derived strains, ''S. condimenti'' has shown no noticeable resistance to antibiotics including lincomycin and penicillin Penicillins (P, PCN or PEN) are a group of beta-lactam antibiotic, β-lactam antibiotics originally obtained from ''Penicillium'' Mold (fungus), moulds, principally ''Penicillium chrysogenum, P. chrysogenum'' and ''Penicillium rubens, P. ru ....
