Kháng huyết thanh Staphylococcal Coagulase Antisera

Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a typical causal microorganism for purulent diseases such as wound infection and is a leading cause of food poisoning. It is also widely known as a cause of Staphylococcal Scalded Skin Syndrome (SSSS) and Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS). Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a known cause of nosocomial infections including serious sepsis and enteritis in patients with impaired immunological function or postoperative patients.

Free coagulase is produced extracellularly by S. aureus which coagulates human plasma or that of animals such as rabbits but is neutralised by antisera. This product is for typing of Staphylococcal coagulase and is prepared by hyperimmunising healthy rabbits with purified coagulase.
