Abstract

We characterized adherence of streptococci and Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated from various infective skin lesions in terms of hydrophobicity, negative charge, tube adherence, slime production, and influence on adherence to coverslips by plasma and serum immunoglobulins. High hydrophobicity was more frequently observed in Streptococcus pyogenes strains than in Streptococcus agalactiae strains (P<0.01) and S. aureus strains (P<0.001) and slime production was more frequently observed in S. agalactiae strains than in S. pyogenes strains (P<0.05). Serum IgA decreased adherence to coverslips of S. pyogenes strains but not that of S. aureus strains. Copyright (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.
