Emergence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus with Panton-Valentine leukocidin genes in central Europe

The aim of the present study was to investigate strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) for the presence of the lukS-lukF determinant of Panton-Valentine leukocidin and to further characterize strains found to contain the genes. During the past 2 years, MRSA containing the lukS...
