“…S. aureus is the most isolated human bacterial pathogen and an important cause of infections of endovascular infections, skin and soft tissues, septic arthritis, sepsis, pneumonia, osteomyelitis, foreign body infections and endocarditis [4]. S. aureus is a common cause of infections in patients in intensive care units, and in many countries, it is often resistant to methicillin (MRSA strains) S. aureus is one of the most common causes of clinical infections worldwide and has attracted significant public attention due to the increased mortality associated with multidrug resistance [5,6]. Currently, S. aureus is the main common cause of nosocomial infections, and as an increasing number of patients receive treatment outside the hospital, this is an increasing public concern [7].…”

Staphylococcus aureus manifests many enzymes, which are correlated with the virulence of bacteria. The aim of the study was to determine enzymes secretion in Staphylococcus aureus strains. The results of the study showed that some enzymes which involve in virulence (plasma coagulase, catalase, urease, protease, and lecithinase, hemolysins) were secreted frequently in multidrug resistant and methicillin resistant S. aureus strains.

Staphylococcus aureus expresses a variety of extracellular proteins and polysaccharides, some of which are correlated with virulence. The aims of study were to identify of multidrug-resistant S. aureus(MDRSA) strains isolated from different sites of patients, to determine their pathogenicity factors, enzymes, ability of carbohydrate fermentation. Study results show that some determinants of pathogenicity (plasma coagulase, catalase, urease, lecithinase production, hemolysis, proteolysis), also carbohydrates and mannitol fermentation in aerobic and anaerobic conditions arecharacterized high activity in MDRSA strains. The most common wasisolation of these strains from patients with oral cavity infections, a few cases -from peritoneal liquid and phlegmon.
