Molecular Detection of mecA Gene in Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Isolated from Surfaces of some Public Hospitals in Katsina State, Nigeria
The increasing rate of antibiotic resistance demonstrated by bacterial pathogens is an emerging problem that is considered a major health concern globally, especially in low-and middle-income countries. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aur...
