What's the difference between stapholococcus and staphylococcus?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Staphylococcus: The correct spelling is Staphylococcus, which is a name for types of bacteria, such as Staphylococcus aureus (also known as Staph aureus or S. aureus). The other word (stapholococcus) is a misspelling.
