Abstract
The ratio of the different types of S. aureus surviving cells immediat ely after sub-lethal heat treatment (52-degrees-C for 15 min) was stud ied. A high ratio of cells which are unable to form colonies even in a common medium such as TSA was observed. This fact has not been report ed previously for common media through recovery after heat shock has b een widely studied. After the treatment, staphylococcal protein A, but no enterotoxin, was seen to be released into the extracellular enviro nment.
