In the present study, a total 110 (60 cheese and 50 cows' raw milk) samples was analyzed for coagulase-positive staphylococci (CPS) according to Food Drug Administration (FDA, 2001) previously. After the isolation, to confirmation of the isolates, catalase test, microscopic examination, coagulase test in tube and glucose-mannitol fermentation tests were applied. After the tests, we obtained 97 CPS isolates, and they were used as a material. We aimed that, 16S rRNA, nuc gene, and SEs genes in the S.aureus isolates were determined by using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) assay. For the confirmation of the isolates being Staphylococci species, 16S rRNA was detected by using PCR assay. For the detection of the CPS isolates being S. aureus, nuc gene detected in the CPS isolates using PCR assay. The 16 S rRNA was detected in a total 97 (35 milk origin and 62 cheese origin) isolates. Therefore, these isolates were evaluated as (CPS). The nuc gene was detected in 50 out of 97 CPS isolates. So, the 50 (18 cheese origin and 32 milk origin) isolates were evaluated as S. aureus. However, none of the staphylococcal enterotoxin genes (SE A,
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
