Molecular typing of clinical Staphylococcus aureus isolates from northern India using coagulase gene PCR-RFLP.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Molecular typing of total 84 Staphylococcus aureus clinical isolates was performed using coagulase gene PCR. Out of 84 S. aureus strains total 33 different types of S. aureus strains were prevalent in this hospital and community. Types 2-7 and 9 were the most prevalent S. aureus strains accounting for more than 53% of total isolates. This technique is relatively inexpensive and is simple to perform and analyze.

Background: Staphylococcus aureus is a common pathogen in human that can be the cause of a wide range of infectious diseases including bacteremia, pneumonia, cellulitis, and osteomyelitis and skin and soft tissue infections. The coagulase enzyme is one of the most important virulence factors of this bacterium. The polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) Coa...

Objective(s): Staphylococcus aureus is an important bacterial pathogen responsible for a variety numbers of nosocomial and community acquired infections. Biofilm formation is regarded as an important factor in the establishment of S. aureus infection. The contribution of the genetic background of S. aureus to biofilm formation is poorly understood. The aim of the present work was to genotype S....
