Heterogeneous vancomycin-intermediate Staphylococcus aureus (hVISA) and vancomycin-intermediate S. aureus (VISA) have been associated with treatment failure, and hVISA cannot be detected by routine disc diffusion test. Currently, there is no specific genetic marker for detection of these strains. The aim of the current study was to inves.. Read More»
