    Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus is a bacterium that is responsible for difficult-to-treat infections in humans. It is a resistant variation of the common bacterium Staphylococcus aureus that has evolved an ability to survive treatment with beta-lactam antibiotics, including penicillin, methicillin, and cephalosporins.
    In hospitals, patients with open wounds, invasive devices, and weakened immune systems are at greater risk for this infection and it generally lives from 10 to 15 hours in an open surface.
