Journal ArticleDOI
Chemical composition and structure of cell wall teichoic acids of staphylococci
TL;DR: The cell wall teichoic acid structures of 22 staphylococci including 13 type strains were determined and the structures of some of the previously described te Jerichoic acids had to be revised.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogeny of the family Halomonadaceae based on 23S and 165 rDNA sequence analyses.
TL;DR: The phylogenetic status of the family Halomonadaceae, which consists of the genera Halomonas, Chromohalobacter and Zymobacter, is evaluated by comparative 23S and 16S rDNA analyses and it is proposed to include the genus Carnimonas, with its single species Carnamonas nigrificans, in thefamily Halomondaceae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deoxyribonucleic acid reassociation in the classification of coagulase-positive staphylococci
S A Meyer,Karl H. Schleifer +1 more
TL;DR: DNA-DNA reassociation studies were performed with coagulase-positive staphylococci belonging to the biotypes A, B, C, D, E and F, and present genetic evidence for the existence of at least two distinct species within this group of organisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigations on the specificity of the Limulus test for the detection of endotoxin.
TL;DR: The studies confirm the specificity of the Limulus test for bacterial endotoxins and indicate that other substances of bacterial origin should be investigated for their ability to gel amoebocyte lysate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Classification of staphylococci based on chemical and biochemical properties
Karl H. Schleifer,M Kocur +1 more
TL;DR: According to the cell wall peptidoglycans and teichoic acids, the 130 strains of staphylococci studied are divided into 10 major groups, in good agreement with their present classification only in some cases.
