Coagulase-negative staphylococci in Southern Brazil: looking toward its high diversity
Abstract: INTRODUCTION: Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) are the most prevalent pathogens in nosocomial infections and may serve as a reservoir of mobile genetic elements such as the staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) encoding methicillin resistance. Molecular characterization...
