Nasal colonization in children with community acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus

Advanced Biomedical Research, 2016
Background: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a frequent cause of infections. The changing epidemiology of MRSA became evident in the 1990s when CA-MRSA cases were first reported.

Bias in Methicillin Resistance of Staphylococcus aureus

Jundishapur Journal of Microbiology, 2015
Dear Editor Recently, several published papers aiming to isolate and characterize methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) have had major bias. For example, an article titled “Microbial Susceptibility and Plasmid Profiles of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Methicillin-Susceptible S. aureus” by Shahkarami et al. (1).
