Accessory gene regulator (agr) dysfunction was unusual in Staphylococcus aureus isolated from Chinese children
Abstract Background Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) with accessory gene regulator (agr) dysfunction occurs in health care settings. This study evaluated the prevalence and the molecular and drug resistance characteristics of S. aureus with dysfunctional agr in a pediatric population in Beijing, Ch...
