Evaluation of phenotypic with genotypic methods for species identification and detection of methicillin resistant in Staphylococcus aureus
1 Jan 2012
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Phenotypic methods for the detection of methicillin resistance are inadequate, due to presence of hetero-resistant population and dependence of environmental factors that may affect the phenotypic expression of resistance. AIMS: Present study was conducted, to evaluate the efficacy of phenotypic methods for the identification of species and mec-A mediated resistance in S. aureus with polymerase chain...
