Table 2.

The proteolytic activities of the extracellular proteases produced from S. aureus on BCG-skim milk agar plates: A, B, C, and D.

Plate Colony diameter (mm) Colony diameter + halo (mm) P z value Reference Pz value Proteolytic activity
A 10 16 0.62 < 0.69 Very strong
B 11 13 0.84 0.80–0.89 Mild
C 8 8.5 0.94 0.90–0.99 Weak
D

P z value is the ratio of the diameter of the colony to the total diameter of the colony plus the zone of hydrolysis.
