Investigation of Staphylococcus lugdunensis and Selected Coagulase Negative Staphylococci Isolated from Blood Culture bottles and Determination of their Sensitivities to Antibiotics.

Objectives: Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) are commensal skin microbiota but may also cause septicemia, endocarditis, and systemic infections. , is a member of CNS, but their antibiotic susceptibility test should be evaluated as not as CNS. We aimed to investigate and selected CNS strains by simple biochemical method and determination of their susceptibilities to antibiotics.
