Separation of Gamma Hemolysin from Staphylococcus aureus Smith 5R

R Möllby 1, T Wadström 1
PMCID: PMC416207  PMID: 16558028

Abstract

Staphylococcus aureus strain Smith 5R was found to produce a hemolysin with an isoelectric point of 9.5 and with a hemolytic spectrum different from alpha, beta, and delta hemolysins.
