Abstract excerpt

Staphylococcus aureus is a clinically relevant pathogen that causes device-related infections (DRI) driven by several virulence factors. This study characterized S. aureus isolates involved in DRI in Tunisian patients. Forty consecutive S. aureus strains causing DRI and 47 randomly selected S. aureus strains causing non-device-related infections (NDRI) were collected. All strains were screened phenotypically for...
