Aims: To test the feasibility of identifying Staphylococcus aureus with a fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assay that uses a single hot‐plate and urea‐NaCl reagents. Methods and Results: Slides spotted with S. aureus and treated with methanol and lysozyme were incubated with urea‐NaCl reagents on a hot‐plate with a precise temperature control and identified with specific DNA probes. Conclusions: Staphylococcus aureus was detected and differentiated from Staphylococcus epidermidis in 1 h with a novel FISH method that used a single hot‐plate and in the absence of dimethyl formamide. Significance and Impact of Study: A rapid hot‐plate FISH assay with urea‐NaCl and without toxic dimethyl formamide might be useful if FISH is run infrequently or where resources are limited.
