Desiccation tolerance is associated with Staphylococcus aureus hypertransmissibility, resistance and infection development in the operating room.

The Journal of hospital infection - 1 Nov 2018

Loftus R W, Dexter F, Robinson A D M, Horswill A R

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Desiccation tolerance increases Staphylococcus aureus survival and risk of transmission. A better understanding of factors driving intraoperative transmission of S. aureus pathogens may lead to innovative improvements in intraoperative infection control. AIMS: To determine whether desiccation tolerance is associated with intraoperative S. aureus transmission, and to examine typical transmission...
