Characteristics of staphylococci isolated from man, poultry and some other animals.

Staphylococcus aureus and Staph. intermedius were the commonest coagulase-positive staphylococci isolated from the hosts examined. Of the 20 strains that remained unclassifiable, 14 were isolated from sheep and goats.
