Abstract excerpt

Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is one of the most common and important causes of nosocomial infections. Rapid detection of this pathogen is important for conducting good and swift infection control. This prospective study evaluates two chromogenic media for the detection of MRSA. New colony characteristics were noticed during this evaluation: (i) a yellow/golden colouration on a pipette after...
