Rapid Detection of mecA and femA Genes by Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification in a Microfluidic System for Discrimination of Different Staphylococcal Species and Prediction of Methicillin Resistance
Staphylococcal infection is one of the most pressing problems in modern medicine due to the increasing antibiotic resistance with the overuse of antibiotics. Conventional methods for identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) generally take 3–7 days and require skilled technicians...
