SCCmec transformation requires living donor cells in mixed biofilms
BiofilmMethicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is an important human pathogen that has emerged through the horizontal acquisition of the staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec). Previously, we showed that SCCmec from heat-killed donors can be transferred via natural transformation in biofilms at frequencies of 10-8-10-7.

Staphylococcal Cassette Chromosome mec (SCCmec) in coagulase negative staphylococci
Medicina Universitaria, 2015 AbstractCoagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) are among the main causative agents of bacteremia. Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus haemolyticus are the CoNS species most frequently isolated. These species are often associated with infections in immunocompromised patients who have a medical device implant.

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 ...
