It usually produces localized disease but can be rapidly invasive, spreading through the tissues, invading bone, and seeding the bloodstream to produce a fulminant picture of septic shock, disseminated intravascular coagulation, and rapid death. Moreover, most strains of staph infections are becoming resistant to most antibiotics, thus posing a significant problem for hospitals and health care facilities. This book, a volume in the Infectious Agents and Pathogenesis series, presents chapters by the major researchers in the field.Infectious agents and pathogenesis.Staphylococcus aureus infectionsPathogenic microorganismsStaphylococcus aureus infections.Pathogenic microorganisms.616/.01453Honeyman Allen1717318Friedman Herman1931-2007.1648774Bendinelli Mauro291109MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910819213003321Staphylococcus aureus infection and disease4113437UNINA
