Multiplex Methicillin Resistance
Type: qPCR Kit, qPCR Pathogen Detection Kit, qRT-PCR Kit
Methicillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus emerges through acquisition of the staphylococcal chromosome cassette mec (SCCmec) carrying the mecA gene encoding an altered penicillin-binding protein (PBP2a) that binds beta-lactam antibiotics with very low affinity. Methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) is resistant to all beta-lactam antibiotics including penicillins, cephalosporins, and carbapenems, severely limiting therapeutic options. MRSA causes both healthcare-associated infections (HA-MRSA) and community-associated infections (CA-MRSA) with varying virulence and antimicrobial resistance profiles.
