Panton-Valentine leucocidin gene in methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolated from tertiary care hospital in Nepal
Introduction: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) expresses the Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL) virulence gene, which is associated with community and hospital-acquired severe MRSA infections. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence and antibiotic susceptibility...
