Rapid cell division of Staphylococcus aureus during colonization of the human nose
Abstract Background Staphylococcus aureus is an important opportunistic pathogen and a commensal bacterium, thriving in the nasal cavities of 20% of the human population. Little is known about the dynamics of asymptomatic colonization and the occasional transition to infectious disease. Results In t...
