Characterization of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus Isolates from Fitness Centers in Memphis Metropolitan Area, USA [PDF]
Indoor skin-contact surfaces of public fitness centers may serve as reservoirs of potential human transmission of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). We found a high prevalence of multi-drug resistant (MDR)-MRSA of CC59 lineage harboring a variety of extracellular toxin genes from surface swab samples collected from inanimate surfaces ...

Joint Application of the Target Trial Causal Framework and Machine Learning Modeling to Optimize Antibiotic Therapy: Use Case on Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections due to Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
Bacterial infections are responsible for high mortality worldwide. Antimicrobial resistance underlying the infection, and multifaceted patient's clinical status can hamper the correct choice of antibiotic treatment. Randomized clinical trials provide average treatment effect estimates but are not ideal for risk stratification and optimization of ...

Susceptibility of Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus to Vancomycin using Liposomal Drug Delivery System [PDF]
Staphylococcus aureus responsible for nosocomial infections is a significant threat to the public health. The increasing resistance of S.aureus to various antibiotics has drawn it to a prime focus for research on designing an appropriate drug delivery system.

Binary IS Typing for Staphylococcus aureus
We present an easily applicable test for rapid binary typing of Staphylococcus aureus: binary interspace (IS) typing. This test is a further development of a previously described molecular typing technique that is based on length polymorphisms of the 16S-23S rDNA interspace region of S. aureus.A novel approach of IS-typing was performed in which binary

Metal–Organic Framework‐Based Antimicrobial Touch Surfaces to Prevent Cross‐Contamination
A MOF‐based antimicrobial door handle cover is developed. It completely inhibits the cross‐contamination of Gram‐positive bacterial species (Staphylococcus aureus, and Enterococcus faecalis), Gram‐negative bacterial species (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Acinetobacter baumannii), and fungi (Candida albicans). Abstract Infection diseases

Staphylococcus aureus biofilm [PDF]
The pathogenic Staphylococcus aureus bacterium can, just as other bacteria, end up in the blood stream of patients with a wound or during the insertion of an intravenous catheter. In the blood stream the bacterium can attach to xenobiotic materials such as artificial valves or catheters.

Exfoliative Toxins of Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
Staphylococcus aureus is an important pathogen of humans and livestock. It causes a diverse array of diseases, ranging from relatively harmless localized skin infections to life-threatening systemic conditions. Among multiple virulence factors, staphylococci secrete several exotoxins directly associated with particular disease symptoms.
