Course Description

Overview

Explore the emerging significance of Staphylococcus argenteus, a coagulase-positive Staphylococcus species, in this 29-minute video from the American Society for Microbiology. Learn about the recent discovery of S. argenteus isolates in North America, challenging previous assumptions about its geographical distribution. Delve into topics such as biochemical identification methods, susceptibility testing, reporting recommendations, and virulence genes associated with this species. Gain insights from experts Dr. Julianne Kus and Dr. Audrey Schuetz as they discuss their research findings published in the Journal of Clinical Microbiology. Understand the implications of improved identification techniques in clinical laboratories and how they contribute to our evolving knowledge of coagulase-positive staphylococci beyond Staphylococcus aureus.
