| Abstract | ||
| This study involved the isolation and identification of Staphylococcus sciuri suspected to be infected with Bacteremia, endocarditis and kidney failures cases in hospitals of Mosul city. A total of 202 blood samples were collected from both sexes. The bacteria were diagnoised using biochemical and physiological tests. The results recovered 16 isolates of Staph. sciuri . Essentials tests were carried out as a screening tests for the virulence as DNase, lecithenase, lipase, protease, alkaline phosphatase and haemolysin. The results showed the ability of all strains of Staph. sciuri to produce alkaline phosphatase, while only 25% of them were capable of producing DNase and haemolysin .The pathogenicity of the bacteria also were evaluated by screening their ability of adhesion urinary tracts epithelial cells using immunoflourecence microscopy and by applying statistical analysis, highest adherence rates were recorded for Staph. sciuri isolated from kidney failure in contrast to strains isolated from endocarditis. | ||
