Role of Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) in the detection of antibiotic-resistant Staphylococcus aureus

Background: Staphylococcus aureus is mainly acquired from hospital infections and demonstrated the ability of developing resistance to many antibiotics. Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) was used to identify antibiotic-resistant isolates. This study was conducted in Al-Mujtahed, Al-Mouwasat and the Ch...
