Frequency of mecA and blaZ genes in isolates of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from clinical samples by PCR method

open access: yesمجله دانشگاه علوم پزشکی گرگان, 2020
Background and Objective: Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is the most common cause of nosocomial infections. Treatment of Staphylococcal infections has become more complicated due to the emergence of methicillin-resistant S.aureus (MRSA) strains.

Prevalence of mecC Gene in MRSA at A Tertiary Hospital in Medan, Indonesia

open access: yesJournal of Pure and Applied Microbiology
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is resistant to β-lactam antibiotics owing to the presence of mecA and mecC resistance genes. Resistance genes in MRSA are carried by a genetic component named staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec ...

Modulation of mecA Gene Expression by Essential Oil from Salvia sclarea and Synergism with Oxacillin in Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis Carrying Different Types of Staphylococcal Chromosomal Cassette mec

open access: yesInternational Journal of Microbiology, 2016
The essential oil (EO) from Salvia sclarea was shown to increase the susceptibility of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis (MRSE) isolates to oxacillin. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of EO from S.

Absence of meca gene in methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus isolates

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2010
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus has emerged as a serious threat to public health, causing both hospital and community-associated infections. The gold standard for MRSA detection isthe amplification of the mecA gene that codes for the production of the altered penicillin-binding protein (PBP2a) responsible for classical methicillin ...

Towards an Ontological Representation of Resistance: The Case of MRSa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This paper addresses a family of issues surrounding the biological phenomenon of resistance and its representation in realist ontologies. Resistance terms from various existing ontologies are examined and found to be either overly narrow, inconsistent ...

Absence of the mecA Gene in Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Isolated from Different Clinical Specimens in Shendi City, Sudan

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2015
Absolute dependence on mecA gene as the defining standard in determining the resistance of S. aureus to methicillin became the subject of distrust by many researchers.
