Homework Answers
1. Staphylococcus aureus is a gram postive bacteria rapidly replicate in the cytoplasm of the host cell. It forms grape like clusters and also it is immobile. S. aureus is facultative anaerobe.
2. It mainly cause blood stream diseases such as bacteremia. Major symptoms includes fever, difficulty in breathing, swelling, redness and sore etc.
3. For the better survive in the host cell it produces some proteases and which is able to cleave the innate immune system or it destroys the integrity of the ECM( extra cellular matrix)
4. Commercial latex test
clumping factor
coagulase
hemolysins
thermostable deoxyribonuclease
Testing of these factors done by using colonies of the bacteria.
5. It show antibiotic resistance against antibody. Mainly it shows resistance against methicillin and other beta lactam antibiotics.
THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY.. hope it will helpful to you

Susceptibility Lab Study Concepts Case Study Vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (VRSA) was isolated from the exit site of a dialysis catheter in a 40-year-old diabetic with a history of peripheral vascular disease, chronic renal failure, and chronic foot ulcers. A few months earlier, the patient's gangrenous toe had been amputated. Following that surgery, the patient developed bacteremia with methicillin-resistant S. aureus from an infected hemodialysis graft. Vancomycin, rifampin, and graft removal successfully treated the infection. A few months later, when the...

NATIONAL CENTER FOR CASE STUDY TEACHING IN S Part Il-Identifying the Pathogen A sample obtained from both Brent and Kristen was cultured using trypticase soy agar with 5% sheep red blood in the local hospital lab. The lab microbiologist observed yellow colonies characteristic of the common pathogen Staphylococcus aureus. It was also concluded that both cultures were coagulase positive, another characteristic of S aureus "So, I just had a nasty Staph infection?" Brent asked his doctor. "Yes, and I'm glad...
