Molecular Analysis and Typing of Staphylococcus aureus isolates

S. aureus a common pathogen causing serious problems & infections to human health, methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA) divided into HA-MRSA & CA-MRSA with genetic diversity that make the a possibility to identify and track by molecular way, now a day molecular techniques play important role in epidemiology and pathogenicity of pathogens. In this book focus on molecular typing of S. aureus isolates by characterization and detection of several genes like erythromycin resistant genes, Panton-Valentine leukocidin toxin gene and protein A gene additional to antibiotics screening tests.
