CC8 MRSA Strains Harboring SCCmec Type IVc are Predominant in Colombian Hospitals
PLoS ONE, 2012 Contexte Des rapports récents soulignent l'incursion du SARM associé à la communauté dans les établissements de soins de santé. Cependant, la connaissance de ce phénomène reste limitée en Amérique latine. L'objectif de cette étude était d'évaluer l'épidémiologie moléculaire du SARM dans trois hôpitaux de soins tertiaires à Medellín, en Colombie ...

Iranian journal of microbiology, 2018 Staphylococcus aureus is an important pathogen that can be colonized in the nose and increase the risk of spreading infections in hospitals. The present study aimed at determining the phenotypic and genotypic characterization of S. aureus strains isolated from patients and healthcare workers (HCWs) from a teaching hospital in Isfahan, Iran.This cross ...

PLoS ONE, 2011 Methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci (MR-CoNS) are opportunistic pathogens and serve as a large reservoir of staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec). Characterization of SCCmec in MR-CoNS can generate useful information on the mobilization and evolution of this element.Non-repetitive MR-CoNS clinical isolates (n = 84; 39 S ...

Tandem mobilization of anti-phage defenses alongside SCCmec elements in staphylococci
Nature CommunicationsRecent research has identified multiple immune systems that bacteria use to protect themselves from viral infections. However, little is known about the mechanisms by which these systems horizontally spread, especially among bacterial pathogens. Here, we investigate antiviral defenses in staphylococci, opportunistic pathogens that constitute leading ...
