Staphylokinase production, however, decreased by 18% (per mg. dry weight) for each degree rise in temperature. The amount of hyaluronidase produced at 37° was five to eight times greater than that produced at 41°. %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/micro/10.1099/00221287-24-3-393
