Despite major advances in the medical arena, staphylococci remain important agents of infectious diseases in the human host. Although initially disregarded as contaminants in cultures, coagulase-negative staphylococci have recently gained great clinical significance and are now recognized as potentially virulent pathogens associated with significant morbidity and mortality.(1) The emergence of antibiotic resistance has also brought renewed attention to staphylococci. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is now considered a major public health problem both in the hospital and in community settings.(2-4) © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2009.
