Friedrich Julius Rosenbach, also known as Anton Julius Friedrich Rosenbach, (16 December 1842 – 6 December 1923) was a German physician and microbiologist. He is credited for differentiating Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus albus, which is now called Staphylococcus epidermidis, in 1884.
Then, in 1884, German scientist Friedrich Julius Rosenbach identified Staphylococcus aureus, discriminating and separating it from Staphylococcus albus, a related bacterium.
Feb 10, 2016 · Additional refinement of the name streptococcus came from Friedrich Julius Rosenbach in 1884, who examined bacteria isolated from suppurative lesions, and the species was named Streptococcus pyogenes (Gr., pyo, pus, and genes, forming) ( Evans, 1936 ).

Colony, morphological, physiological, and biochemical characteristics of marine S. epidermidisare shown in the table below. Note: + = Positive, – = Negative, W = Weakly Positive
The normal practice of detecting S. epidermidis is by using appearance of colonies on selective media, bacterial morphology by light microscopy, catalase and slide coagulase testing. Zobell agar is useful for the isolation of Staphylococcus epidermidis from marine organisms. On the Baird-Parker agar with egg yolk supplement, colonies appear small a...
Role in foot odor
A common misconception about foot odor and body odor in general is that sweat itself smells and causes people to smell. However, sweat itself is almost entirely odorless. Rather, microbes present on the skin metabolize certain compounds in sweat as a source of nutrients, producing compounds with an unpleasant smell in the process. S. epidermidis thrives in warm, moist environments and is a common bacteria of the human microbiome; it is thus primarily responsible for foot odor as feet have mor...
En 1879 Louis Pasteur (1822-1895) demostró ante el mundo que en la "septicemia puerperal" la causa y origen de la mortalidad materno infantil postparto era causada por una bacteria. 6. Bautizada posteriormente como Streptococcus pyogenes en el año 1884 por el alemán Antón Friedrich Julius Rosenbach (1842-1923).
May 31, 2022 · Additional refinement of the name streptococcus came from Friedrich Julius Rosenbach in 1884, who examined bacteria isolated from suppurative lesions, and the species was named Streptococcus pyogenes (Gr., pyo, pus, and genes, forming) (Evans, 1936).
May 18, 2021 · In 1884, the German physician Friedrich Julius Rosenbach differentiated the staphylococci by the color of their colonies: S. aureus (from the Latin aurum, gold) [ 2 ]. For another 20 years, very little was known on the pathophysiology of this bug.
