ΔCt-informed, calibrated logistic regression accurately attributes mecA in Staphylococcus aureus-positive wound specimens

Microbiology Spectrum
In wound specimens, co-detection of mecA and Staphylococcus aureus by PCR does not necessarily indicate methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) because coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) frequently harbor mecA.
