This study reports results on the biochemical characteristics of 274 Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated from mastitic milk, hands of milkmen and milking machines. Features included colony morphology on Baird Parker agar (BPA), catalase, coagulase and thermonuclease tests. API-Staph (bioMérieux, France) was used as reference identification system. 39.4% of the colonies on BPA identified as S.aureus were atypical. They were more frequent in milk samples (94.4%). All S.aureus strains were coagulase positive but intensity of the test varied according to the source: environmental strains were 3+ or 4+, while 17.1% of strains isolated from milk presented only 1+ or 2+ results. The majority of atypical S.aureus strains presented a 4+ coagulase result. 2.2% of S.aureus strains were thermonuclease negative. Sixteen thermonuclease positive and coagulase positive strains were identified as S.hyicus. Esse trabalho relata as características bioquímicas de 274 cepas de Staphylococcus aureus isoladas de leite mastítico, de mãos de ordenhadores e de ordenhadeiras mecânicas. Foram avaliadas as características morfológicas em agar Baird Parker (BPA) e os resultados para os testes de catalase, coagulase e termonuclease. API-Staph foi empregado como sistema de referência para identificação. 39,4% das colônias em BPA identificadas como S.aureus apresentaram morfologia atípica, sendo mais freqüentes em leite (94,4%). Todas as cepas identificadas como S.aureus foram coagulase positivas mas a intensidade da reação variou de acordo com a fonte: cepas isoladas de amostras ambientais foram 3+ ou 4+, enquanto 17,1% daquelas isoladas de leite foram apenas 1+ ou 2+. A maioria das cepas de S aureus com morfologia atípica em agar Baird-Parker apresentaram coagulase 4+. 2,2% das cepas de S.aureus foram termonuclease negativas. 16 cepas termonuclease positivas e coagulase positivas foram identificadas como S.hyicus
