Leukotoxin and pyrogenic toxin Superantigen gene backgrounds in bloodstream and wound Staphylococcus aureus isolates from eastern region of China

13 Aug 2018

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The bicomponent leukotoxins and the pyrogenic toxin superantigens (PTSAgs) are important virulence factors of Staphylococcus aureus. It is necessary to survey the prevalence and expression of these toxin-encoding genes for understanding the possible pathogenic capacity of S. aureus to cause disease. METHODS: Five leukotoxin genes and thirteen PTSAg determinants were detected for 177 S. aureus isolates...
