The emerging threat of multidrug-resistant mecA gene-positive coagulase-negative Staphylococci
Background and Objectives: Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS), previously classified as normal bacterial flora, have recently been associated with serious infectious diseases. The clinical isolation rate of these bacteria has increased in parallel with a rising prevalence of antibiotic resistance.
