Staphylococcus cohnii is aGram-positive,coagulase-negative member of thebacterial genusStaphylococcus consisting of clusteredcocci. The species commonly lives on human skin; clinical isolates have shown high levels ofantibiotic resistance.[1] A strain ofS. cohnii was found to contain amobile genetic element very similar to the staphylococcal cassette chromosome encoding methicillin resistance element seen inStaphylococcus aureus.[2]
