Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStaphylococcus aureus Nasal Carriage Among Injecting and Non-Injecting Drug Users and Antimicrobial SusceptibilityMojtaba Varshochi, Zahra Attari, Alka Hasani, Ali SeidiStaphylococcus Aureus (SA) is one of the most prevalent bacterial pathogens in human beings. Approximately 20% of healthy persons are persistent carriers and 60% are intermittent carriers of SA. Nasal cavity is one of the most important sites of its colonization. Intravenous (IV) drug abuse has been proposed as a risk factor for colonization of SA in the nasal mucosa. … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 23 May 2013 · 7,312 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAntibiotic Resistance of Community and Hospital Acquired Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Isolates from Clinical SpecimensAza Bahadeen Taha, Sabria M. Said Al-SalihiProblem statement: Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is responsible for an increasing number of serious hospital and community acquired infections. Increased emergence in MRSA resistance to antibiotics is a growing problem. Approach: The resistance of MRSA to 20 antibiotics agents were studied. Also comparison of antibiotics resistance of community and hospital acquired MRSA were performed. Meanwhile the profile of antibiotics resistance … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 4 Oct 2011 · 7,876 accessesView PDFCite
