Global network analysis of drug tolerance, mode of action and virulence in methicillin-resistant S. aureus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Staphylococcus aureus is a major human pathogen and strains resistant to existing treatments continue to emerge. Development of novel treatments is therefore important.

Rapid PCR Detection of Staphylococcus aureus Clonal Complex 398 by Targeting the Restriction-Modification System Carrying sau1-hsdS1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A PCR targeting sau1-hsdS1 was developed for rapid detection of Staphylococcus aureus clonal complex 398 (CC398). High sensitivity (100%) and specificity (100%) were shown by evaluating the test on a large strain collection (n = 1,307). We recommend this

The distribution of plasmids that carry virulence and resistance genes in Staphylococcus aureus is lineage associated. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND: Staphylococcus aureus is major human and animal pathogen. Plasmids often carry resistance genes and virulence genes that can disseminate through S. aureus populations by horizontal gene transfer (HGT) mechanisms. Sequences of S.

High-level mupirocin resistance in methicillin-resistant staphylococci isolated from dogs and cats

open access: yesBMC Veterinary Research, 2019
Background Mupirocin is one of the few antimicrobials active against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), and is frequently used for the eradication of MRSA nasal colonisation in humans.

Inducible Clindamycin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus among Patients Attending Tertiary Care Centre: A Descriptive Cross-sectional Study

open access: yesJournal of Nepal Medical Association, 2021
Introduction: Staphylococcus aureus, a superbug, resistant to multiple antibiotics led to growing interest in the usage of macrolide-lincosamide-streptogramin B antibiotics, which are now rapidly developing resistance.
