The Staphylococcus aureus “superbug” [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2004
There has been some debate about the disease-invoking potential of Staphylococcus aureus strains and whether invasive disease is associated with particularly virulent genotypes, or "superbugs." A study in this issue of the JCI describes the genotyping of a large collection of nonclinical, commensal S.

Sequence Variability in Staphylococcal Enterotoxin Genes seb, sec, and sed

open access: yesToxins, 2016
Ingestion of staphylococcal enterotoxins preformed by Staphylococcus aureus in food leads to staphylococcal food poisoning, the most prevalent foodborne intoxication worldwide. There are five major staphylococcal enterotoxins: SEA, SEB, SEC, SED, and SEE.
