Molecular detection of pore-forming leuko toxin in methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolated from skin infection
Abstract Background: The ability of Staphylococcus aureus to cause disease has been attributed to an impressive spectrum of virulence factors. Objective: The study investigated molecular detection of pore-forming leuko toxin (Panton–Valentine leucocidin [PVL]) in S. aureus that is resistant to methi...
