  • Title: Cold-sensitive variants of Staphylococcus aureus and their stimulation by penicillins and cephalosporins.
    Author: Annear DI, Grubb WB.
    Journal: Microbios; 1976; 17(67):61-7. PubMed ID: 1029772.
    Abstract:
    Cold-sensitive (Cs) variants were obtained from ageing broth cultures of the Oxford strain of Staphylococcus aureus (NCTC 6571) and other penicillin-sensitive strains of this species. Growth of all strains was severely retarded on certain media at 30 degrees C but was stimulated by the addition of penicillins and cephalosporins. Revertants were derived which behaved as the parent cells did with respect to growth temperature requirements and response to these antibiotics.
