Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus: an overview of basic and clinical research
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is one of the most successful modern pathogens. The same organism that lives as a commensal and is transmitted in both health-care and community settings is also a leading cause of bacteraemia ...
