Other species of staphylococcus include Staphylococcus
sapropytus and Staphylococcus epidermides.
S.aureus is found in pyogenic
infection and on skin in health, it is catalase and coagulase positive. S. epidermide is also called Stapylococus albus are commensals found
in nose and skin but can be pathogenic under certain conditions. It is catalase
positive but caogulase negative (Baker et
