  1. staphylococci

    Staphylococci are a group of gram-positive bacteria that are characterized by their round shape and typically arranged in clusters like grapes. They are known for their ability to cause a wide range of diseases in humans and animals through either toxin production, penetration into host tissues or by inducing an immune response that harms the host. Some types are part of the normal flora of the skin, and others are considered harmful, such as Staphylococcus aureus, which is often associated with various skin infections and severe conditions like pneumonia and meningitis.
