ABSENCE OF mecA GENE IN METHICILLIN-RESISTANT STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS ISOLATES
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus has emerged as a serious threat to public health, causing both hospital and community-associated infections. The gold standard for MRSA detection is the amplification of the mecA gene that codes for the production of the altered penicillin-binding protein (PBP2a) responsible for classical methicillin resistance. This work determined the nature of meth...
متن کاملStaphylococcus aureus genotyping using novel real-time PCR formats.
One approach to microbial genotyping is to make use of sets of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in combination with binary markers. Here we report the modification and automation of a SNP-plus-binary-marker-based approach to the genotyping of Staphylococcus aureus and its application to 391 S. aureus isolates from southeast Queensland, Australia. The SNPs used were arcC210, tpi243, arcC16...
متن کاملAntibiotic Resistance Pattern and Frequency of mecA Gene in Staphylococcus aureus Isolated from Shohada Hospital, Tabriz
Introduction: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) can cause serious and life-threatening hospital- and community-acquired infections. Colonized and infected patients represent the most important reservoir of MRSA in health care facilities. Therefore, in this study, MRSA isolates collected from Shohada Hospital in Tabriz were evaluated for the frequency of mecA gene and their anti...
متن کاملAntibiotic Resistance Pattern and Detection of mecA Gene in Staphylococcus aureus Isolated from Iranian Hamburger Samples
Background: Among the bacteria that cause food poisoning, Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common causes of food poisoning worldwide. The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of S. aureus strains in Iranian hamburgers, analysis of their antibiotic resistance pattern, and molecular detection of mecA gene in isolated strains. Methods: A total of 100 Iranian handmade (traditi...
متن کاملEffect of Artemisia ciniformis Extract on Expression of NorA Efflux Pump Gene in Ciprofloxacin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus by Real Time PCR
Background: Activity of norA efflux pump is one of the antibiotic resistance mechanisms in ciprofloxacin resistant Staphylococcus aureus. In this study, the effect of Artemisia ciniformis extract on reducing the expression of norA efflux pumps gene in ciprofloxacin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates was studied. Materials and Methods: Ciprofloxacin resistant S. aureus isolates, were trea...
