摘要: We determined the morphological and immunological properties of encapsulated strains Staphylococcus isolated from clinical specimens. Capsular polysaccharide antigens extracted cell surface fractions induced resistance in mice against challenge with homologous strain. Hyperimmune rabbit serum prepared using these passively protected only The protective activity was absorbed capsular polysaccharide, but not heterologous organisms, nature antibody that IgM. vaccine by us successful preventing staphylococcal infections. In addition, because immunoglobulin treatment, were infection methicillin-resistant aureus strains. detected encapsulation electron microscopy although no capsules light negative staining. Understanding microbiology is often very challenging for visually impaired students, there have been significant improvements teaching aids used educational purposes. However, morphology staphylococci can be identified tactile graphics. Microbiology education important students who aspire to become medical professionals.
