Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Carriage of virulence factors confers some evolutionary benefit to bacteria, which favors the resistant strains. We aimed to analyze whether antibiotic susceptibility of Staphylococcus aureus strains is affected by agr typing, biofilm formation ability, and virulence profiles. METHODS: A total of 123 S. aureus clinical isolates were subjected to antimicrobial susceptibility testing by...
