Staphylococcal species less frequently isolated from human clinical specimens - are they a threat for hospital patients?
Magdalena SzemrajMagdalena GrazulEwa BalcerczakEligia M SzewczykPublished in: BMC infectious diseases (2020)
Our results clearly indicated significant differences between the tested species, which might be a result of the horizontal gene transfer (HGT) and can lead to the formation and selection of multi-drug resistant strains as well as strains with new virulence features. Such strains can have a new clinical relevance.
