Staphylococcus pasteuri is a species of Gram-positive, catalase-positive, coagulase-negative bacteria in the genus Staphylococcus. It was first described in 1993 from human clinical samples.[1]
Ecology
[edit]It has been found on human skin, in indoor air, pasteurised dairy products, environmental surfaces,[1] and the lower gastrointestinal tract of pigs.[2]
Clinical significance
[edit]Though rare, S. pasteuri can act as an opportunistic pathogen. Documented infections include native-valve infective endocarditis,[3] chronic post-traumatic osteomyelitis,[4] and bacteraemia in a leukemia patient.[5] Clinical isolates often show resistance to β-lactams and macrolides, but remain susceptible to glycopeptides like vancomycin and to linezolid.[1]
Etymology
[edit]The species name pasteuri honors Louis Pasteur.[1]
