The Relationship Between Prevalence of Antibiotics Resistance and Virulence Factors Genes of MRSA and MSSA Strains Isolated from Clinical Samples, West Iran

Abstract

OBJECTIVES: (MSSA) strains from clinical samples taken in west Iran. METHODS: ), and exfoliative toxin. RESULTS: < 0.050). CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of MRSA and the association of pathogenic agents with antibiotics resistance genes can lead to the emergence of strains with higher pathogenicity and less susceptibility.
