Abstract

ABSTRACT Staphylococcus schleiferi is a coagulase-negative staphylococcus infrequently reported as a human pathogen. We report a case of prosthetic valve endocarditis attributed to this organism, contrast it to another Staphylococcus species that gives similar clumping factor results ( S. lugdunensis ), and propose a simple, effective identification scheme for identification of clumping factor-positive staphylococci.
