PHOSPHATASE ACTIVITY OF STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS: CORRELATION OF ENZYME PRODUCTION WITH RESISTANCE TO PENICILLIN AND PHAGE PATTERN.
Cannon, Frances D. (The Mary Imogene Bassett Hospital, Cooperstown, N.Y.), and Clinton V. Z. Hawn. Phosphatase activity of Staphylococcus aureus: correlation of enzyme production with resistance to penicillin and phage pattern. J. Bacteriol. 86:1052-1056. 1963.-A simplified method for the determination of the phosphatase activity in different strains of staphylococci is described. The relationship between phosphatase production and penicillin resistance was studied and found inconstant. A close relationship between phosphatase production and phage group and type was observed.
