Description

Staphylococcus aureus is a common pathogen implicated in various skin conditions, including boils (furuncles) and atopic dermatitis (eczema). Understanding the virulence factors contributing to these skin infections is essential for developing targeted therapeutic interventions. This research aims to compare the virulence factors, including toxins, adhesins, and immune evasion proteins, of two Staphylococcus aureus strains associated with boils and atopic dermatitis: Strain A (ST398) and Strain B (NCTC 8325).
