| septicaemia | Systemic disease associated with the presence and persistence of pathogenic microorganisms or their toxins in the blood. Synonym: blood poisoning. See: bacteraemia. Origin: Gr. Haima = blood (11 Jan 1998) |

| septicaemia pluriformis | <microbiology> Haemorrhagic septicaemia is an infectious disease of cattle and buffalo which is caused by the bacteria Pasteurella multocida. Symptoms include fever, appetite loss, and drooling. It appears as a result of stress from malnutrition, exhaustion, or lengthy transportation. (09 Oct 1997) |
| typhoid septicaemia | Typhoid during the phase when the organism can be cultured from the blood. Synonym: typhosepsis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Staphylococcus | <bacteria> Genus of nonmotile gram-positive bacteria that are found in clusters and that produce important exotoxins. Staphylococcus aureus (Staphylococcus pyogenes) is pyogenic, an opportunistic pathogen and responsible for a range of infections including severe sepsis, pneumonia, endocarditis and soft tissue infections. It has protein A on the surface of the cell wall. Coagulase production correlates with virulence: hyaluronidase, lipase and staphylokinase are released in addition to the toxins. (27 Sep 1997) |
| staphylococcus antitoxin | A preparation from native serum containing antitoxic globulins or their derivatives that specifically neutralise the lethal, skin-necrosing, and haemolytic properties of the alpha-toxin of Staphylococcus aureus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| staphylococcus epidermidis | A species of staphylococcus that is a spherical, non-motile, gram-positive, chemoorganotrophic, facultative anaerobe. Mainly found on the skin and mucous membrane of warm-blooded animals, it can be primary pathogen or secondary invader. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Staphylococcus food poisoning | Outbreaks commonly caused by staphylococcal enterotoxin and characterised by an abrupt onset of gastroenteritis within several hours after ingestion of the food contaminated with the preformed exotoxin; vomiting is usually more severe and diarrhoea less severe than in infectious forms of bacterial food poisoning. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Staphylococcus haemolyticus | Coagulase-negative staphylococcus indigenous to human and mammalian hosts. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Staphylococcus hominis | Coagulase-negative staphylococcus indigenous to human and mammalian hosts. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Staphylococcus hyicus | A species whose porcine subspecies are opportunistic pathogens associated with epidermites such as greasy pig disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| staphylococcus phages | Viruses whose host is staphylococcus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Staphylococcus pyogenes albus | A name formerly applied to the organisms which are now regarded as the mutants of Staphylococcus aureus which form white colonies. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Staphylococcus saprophyticus | A genus that causes urinary tract infections. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Staphylococcus simulans | Coagulase-negative staphylococcus indigenous to human and mammalian hosts. (05 Mar 2000) |
| staphylococcus vaccine | A suspension of organisms from cultures of one or more strains of Staphylococcus; used for furunculosis, acne, and other suppurative conditions. (05 Mar 2000) |
