In this work, which is a first step in a study on the mechanism of virulence in staphylococci in relation to some of ther genetic factors, two groups of strains were constitued. One group is made of haemolytic, coagulase-positive, and DNase-positive strains, which are virulent for mice by the intracerebral route and the other group of non haemolytic, coagulase-negative, and DNase-negative strains, which are avirulent for mice. Results have shown that the pathogenic group of strains, containing virulence factors, has a lower nucleic acid content (% of dry cells) than the non-pathogenic group.
The two groups of strains are less differentiated by their nucleic acid content than by their coagulase, haemolysin, and DNase activities. A closer correlation seems to exist between this nucleic acid content, and the virulence for mice and also the number of precipitating antigens obtained with staphylococcal antitoxin.
