Molecular characterisation of Staphylococcus aureus in school-age children in Guangzhou: associations among agr types, virulence genes, sequence types, and antibiotic resistant phenotypes

Hao Cai,
Xueying Li,
Chao Zhang
et al.

Abstract: Background Staphylococcus aureus, one of the most prevalent opportunistic pathogens, mainly colonizes the nasal cavity and is a risk factor for severe infections. Virulence factors and accessory gene regulator (agr) are key to the severity and diversity of staphylococcal infection. In this study, we aimed to characterise S. aureus agr-types and virulence genes and correlated them with genetic background and antibiotic-resistant phenotypes. Results … Show more
