Abstract
Materials and methods: Sampling was carried out in Tehran Metro from 2016 to 2017. One hundred samples were collected from metro wagons. The antibiotic susceptibility test was done with the disk diffusion test using cefoxitin, cefotaxime, cotrimoxazole, methicillin, and oxacillin antibiotics. Sensitivity to Deconex AF was measured by Broth dilution test. PCR technique was used to investigate the presence of mecA and qacA/B genes using specific primers.
期刊介绍：
Reviews in Medical Microbiology is a quarterly review journal which provides a balanced coverage of the whole field of medical microbiology. The Journal publishes state-of-the art reviews, mini-reviews, case presentations and original research from on-going research of the latest developments and techniques in medical microbiology, virology, mycology, parasitology, clinical microbiology, and hospital infection. In addition, PhD-Review - a platform for young researchers, and biographical Bio-Sketch articles are also considered. Reviews are concise, authoritative, and readable synthesis of the latest information on its subject, and references are limited to the fifty key sources for full reviews and twenty for mini-reviews. Reviews in Medical Microbiology is the perfect way for both qualified and trainee microbiologists, and researchers and clinicians with an interest in microbiology, to stay fully informed of the latest developments in medical microbiology. The journal is a valuable resource for educational and teaching purposes.
