Staphylococcus aureus, a major human pathogen, has a collection of virulence factors and
the ability to acquire resistance to most antibiotics. This ability is further augmented by …

Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) have emerged as major pathogens in healthcare-
associated facilities, being S. epidermidis, S. haemolyticus and, more recently, S …

Staphylococcus haemolyticus is one of the most frequent aetiological factors of
