vwb is required for the coagulase phenotype of S. pseudintermedius ED99. (A) Coagulation assay of wild-type and mutant strains of S. pseudintermedius ED99 and S. aureus Newman in human and canine plasma. Average data are provided from three biological replicates. (B) Antibody (Ab)-mediated inhibition of coagulation in canine plasma using ED99 wild type in the presence of increasing concentrations of anti-vWbppseudintermedius antibody. The mean values are given from three experiments with error bars representing standard deviation (n = 3).
