| Description | Staphylococcus pseudintermedius, one of the most recently described staphylococcal species, was isolated from diseased animals in 2005. Similarly to phenotypically highly related S. intermedius, it is also likely to play a role in human infections. These two species can only be distinguished from each other by molecular biological methods. The presented strain Staphylococcus pseudintermedius was isolated from a throat swab of a pet dog owner with pharyngitis 11 years before the first report of this species in the taxonomic literature. |
