Why is it not surprising that staphylococci are the leading cause of wound infections?
Kisachek [45]
This genus is promptly present as a piece of the ordinary microbiota on the vast majority's skin, so it could without much of a stretch enter wounds. Staphylococci are Gram-positive cocci around 0.5 – 1.0 μm in width. They develop in groups, sets and sporadically in short chains. The bunches emerge in light of the fact that staphylococci partition into two planes. The arrangement of the cocci recognizes micrococci and staphylococci from streptococci, which more often than not develop in chains.
