Abstract

In this study, it was aimed to compare four different coagulase test results which were used to detect coagulase activity in staphylococci. The coagulase activity of 200 strains of staphylbcocci isolated from vari¬ous clinical samples were investigated using slide coagulase tests with human and rabbit plasma, tube coagu¬lase test with human plasma and commercial latex agglutination kit which contains IgG and fibrinogen bound to the latex particles. Among the tests a correlation was found in 181 strains, but not in 19 strains. The tube coagulase test as reference teset is still reliable. However it seems that other tests are also valuable as alternative tests.

Özet

Bu çalışmada stafilokokların koagülaz etkinliğini saptamada kullanılan dört farklı koagülaz testinin sonuç¬larının karşılaştırılması amaçlandı. İnsan ve tavşan plazmalı lam koagülaz, insan plazmalı tüp koagülaz, IgG ve fibrinojen ile kaplı lateks partikülleri içeren ticari lateks aglütinasyon testleri kullanılarak çeşitli klinik örnek¬lerden soyutlanan 200 stafilokok susunun koagülaz etkinliği araştırıldı. Suşların 181'inde uygulanan testler arasında korelasyon, I9'unda ise uyumsuzluk saptandı. Tüp koagülaz testinin referans testi olarak geçerliliğini koruduğu, ancak diğer testlerin de oldukça güvenilir alternatif test¬ler olduğu sonucuna varıldı.
