Abstract:
:A replicator method for screening Staphylococcus aureus isolates for synergistic hemolytic activity is described. The technique should also be useful for assessing the hemolytic activity of staphylococci and streptococci on different lots or brands of blood agar because the inoculum and the distances between spot inocula are standardized.

In this study, we report on six patients with bacteremia due to A. baylyi, based on analysis of the 16S-23S rRNA intergenic spacer and the 16S rRNA gene. All six patients had multiple underlying diseases. The infection was nosocomially acqui...
