  • Title: [Susceptibility of staphylococci to natural and synthetic iron chelators].
    Author: Lisiecki P, Wysocki P, Mikucki J.
    Journal: Med Dosw Mikrobiol; 2000; 52(2):103-10. PubMed ID: 11107784.
    Abstract:
    A total of 237 strains of staphylococci belonging to 27 species were tested for susceptibility to natural and synthetic iron-chelators. Coagulase-negative staphylococci were much more susceptible than coagulase-positive ones: 82 out of 148 coagulase-negative strains were susceptible to desferrioxamine B, rhodotorulic acid and ovotransferrin and 7 out of 89 coagulase-positive strains. A correlation between the susceptibility to iron-chelators species affiliation and the origin of strain was not found.
