Small-colony variants (SCVs) of Staphylococcus aureus were cultured from five patients with persistent and relapsing infections. All five SCV strains were nonhemolytic and nonpigmented and grew very slowly on routine culture media in an ambient atmosphere. In several instances, these phenotypic characteristics led to the initial misidentification o...
