Characterising clinical Staphylococcus aureus isolates from the sinuses of patients with chronic rhinosinusitis

Abstract The role of Staphylococcus aureus in the pathogenesis of the chronic sinonasal disease chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), has not been definitively established. Comparative analyses of S. aureus isolates from CRS with those from control participants may offer insight into a possible pathogenic l...
