Abstract
A method was developed to study virulence of coagulase-negative staphy-lococci. Our results showed that coagulase-negative staphylococci injected into adult mice by the intracerebral route did not give rise to lethal infections, whereas mice aged 2 days were much more susceptible.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
