The Rapid Detection of MRSA
… based systems can detect MRSA within one day ('rapid screening') though these tests are more costly than culture tests. It is hypothesised that rapid detection of MRSA carriers will lead to faster implementation of control procedures, reducing the transmission of MRSA.</p> <p>The first study in …
