Zusammenfassung:	Methods and compositions, including diagnostic kits, for the detection of Staphylococcus Aureus (SA) and clinically important antibiotic resistant forms thereof, such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (VRSA), mupirocin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (mupSA), and the like, from individuals in a sample population are disclosed Also disclosed are cost effective methods and kits for bacterial sampling and analysis via inherent and expeditious SA cell disruption methods followed by Direct PCR, circumventing the need, expense and contamination sks associated with DNA isolation methods These improved methods in conjunction with SA prevalence analysis are applied so as to eliminate the approximately 70% of samples in the human population which do not carry SA (SA negative), followed by a second more costly test for antibiotic resistant forms thereof, such as amplification to confirm for presence of MRSA or other target disease
