DENISON AM, Deleon-Carnes M, Blau DM, Shattuck EC,. Molecular Characterization of Staphylococcus aureus and Influenza Virus Coinfections in Patients with Fatal Pneumonia. J Clin Microbiol. 2013 Sep 25
Molecular techniques were used to characterize genetic features of Staphylococcus aureus in 66 fatal cases of pneumonia caused by S. aureus and influenza A or B viruses. Nucleic acids were extracted from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues. The majority of cases revealed genetic markers for Panton-Valentine leukocidin, mecA, and spa type t008
