First observed in 1960, Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a Gram-positive, multi-drug resistant strain of Staphylococcus aureus. Whilst some MRSA infections are minor, some infections can be life-threatening.
In this blog, we would like to delve deeper into the testing method ISO 22196 and the key differences between the strains of bacteria used – Staphylococcus aureus vs MRSA. Commonly BioLabTests test against MRSA, but we can also test against Staphylococcus aureus.
Our BioLabTests team often get enquiries about the testing standards we employ to carry out efficacy microbiological testing against bacteria and fungi. This is why we decided to introduce the various test methods in our blog section, starting with ISO 22196.
