Use of a phage set for the ecological typing of coagulase-negative staphylococci

P B Heczko et al. Zentralbl Bakteriol Orig A. 1978 Jul.

Abstract

The staphylococcal flora of skin and acne lesions of 98 patients was analysed by the use of phage typing and biotyping methods. It appeared that in some individuals a relatively stable staphylococcal flora was present while others harboured 7 or more different strains. The same S. epidermidis strains were found on different skin sites and in acne lesions of a given individual. Examples of different carriage patterns were given.
