Abstract: | A total of 103 isolates of CNS (66 strains of S. epidermidis and 37 strains of S. haemolyticus) were investigated. Lipolytic activity of staphylococcal strains was determined by Tryptic Soy Agar containing Tween 20 or Tween 60. The 95.4% strains of staphylococci demonstrated the lipolytic activity on Tween 20 agar and the 89.4% of strains of staphylococci degradation ester of fatty acids on Tweens 60 agar. We detected that S. epidermidis strains (respectively 95,4%, 89,4%) produced lipases more frequently than S. haemolyticus strains (respectively 72,9%, 59,4%). Studies suggest that source of isolation from clinical materials (blood, wound and pus) does not have an influence on the ability hydrolysis esters. |
