Agglutinating serum for distinguishing Staphylococcus aureus of human biotype.

I Live
PMCID: PMC415303  PMID: 125241

Abstract

Antiserum to Staphylococcus aureus strain 17 was treated with S. aureus strain 61218 until the antibodies against thermostable agglutinogen were removed. The absorbed serum agglutinated phage-typable as well as phageuntypable staphylococci of human biotype, whether recovered from people or from dogs.
