Staphylococcus aureus is more susceptable to disinfectants because it is a gram +ve bacterium. gram +ve bacteria are more susceptable to disinfectants than gram _ve bacteria because gram positive bacteria donot have outer lipid layer outside the peptidoglycan wall.
what is the explanation for staphylococcus aureus to be more susceptible to disinfectants?
what is the mechanism of infection, adhesion, and virulence factors of Staphylococcus Aureus.
What test could you use to determine if your unknown bacterium was Staphylococcus aureus or Staphylococcus epidermidis? O Mannitol Salt Agar O Oxidase O Catalase Urease Citrate
A single Staphylococcus aureus bacteria cell gets into a wound on your foot. S. aureus divides by binary fission approximately once every 30 minutes (doubling time). Mutations occur at a rate of 1 per 1010 base pairs per generation. S. aureus has 2.8 x 106 base pairs in its genome. Therefore, approximately 0.0028 mutations will occur per bacterium in the population. As a Gram-positive bacteria, will this infection be susceptible to antibiotics? Explain your answer (reference one of the three...
Describe the characteristics that make Staphylococcus aureus such a dangerous pathogen
Upon performing a Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion test using Staphylococcus aureus, you observe no zone of inhibition with penicillin and a 15mm zone of inhibition with vancomycin. Based on these observation, which of the following conclusions is valid? Staphylococcus aureus is resistant to penicillin and sensitive to vancomycin. Staphylococcus aureus is resistant to both vancomycin and penicillin. Staphylococcus aureus is resistant to penicillin but may or may not be sensitive to vancomycin. Penicillin is bactericidal toward Staphylococcus aureus, and vancomycin is...

staphylococcus aureus questions: 1) how does it replicate? 2) what are symptoms of this infection in humans? 3) how does it interact with the immune system? 4) how is it clinically detected? 5) how can it fight back to antibiotics?
