[Detection of penicillinase and bacteriocinogenicity plasmids in Staphylococcus aureus strain No. 580].
Staphylococcus aureus No. 580 strain contains simultaneously two plasmids: bacteriocinogenicity plasmid and penicillinase plasmid. Both plasmids are lost spontaneously with a high frequency, and also under the effect of acridine orange at temperatures of 37 degrees C and 44 degrees C, and in cultivation at a temperature of 44 degrees C for 5 days. Loss of one of the plasmids failed to lead to stabilization of another plasmid, and it was eliminated spontaneously with the same frequency as in the population of the initial strain. Plasmid loss did not lead to the changes in biochemical and pathogenic properties and also of the phagovar and bacteriogenovar. At the same time in elimination of one or both plasmids lag-phase diminished from 220 to 120 min.
