Nasal staphylococci microbiota and resistome in healthy adults in La Rioja (Spain) - High frequency of toxigenic S. aureus and MSSA-CC398 sub-clade
The molecular epidemiology of nasal Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) could provide insight into the virulence potential, resistome, and host adaptation system in healthy humans. This study determined the nasal staphylococci diversity and characterized the S. aureus strains from healthy adults in La Rioja (northern Spain).
