Comparative Evaluation of Three Chromogenic Media Combined with Broth Enrichment and the Real-Time PCR-Based Xpert MRSA Assay for Screening of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus in Nasal Swabs

BACKGROUND: We evaluated the performance of three chromogenic media (Brilliance agar I [Oxoid, UK], Brilliance agar II [Oxoid], and ChromID MRSA [Biomérieux, France]) combined with broth enrichment and the Xpert MRSA assay for screening of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). METHODS:...
