Staphyloccus aureus is genus of
non-motile bacteria living on the Skin and Mucous membranes that are
gram-positive cocci and causes inflammation. Staphylococcus produces several
toxins that kills white blood cells, red blood cells, sperm cells etc. and
causes boils. Antibiotic drugs do not easily control staphylococcus aureus or
staphylococcal germs; this is because the germs that cause staphyloccus
produces certain resistant strains called Chromosal.
Staphylococcal infections are
worldwide problems and Rosenbach; a German medical scientist discovered it in
1884.

and impersonal contact. It can be by coming in contact with an infected
material and persons harbouring this infections by sexual intercourse. It can
be contracted from unhygienic environment like toilets contaminated hospital
material or instrument again, ladies that go for illegal D&C in some
unhygienic places are candidates, exchange of wears, towels, kissing blood
transfusion and barbers shops are other strong source of transmission.
