Gram (+) Flow Chart

Staphylococcus aureus, a Gram-positive microbe, can cause various infections ranging from minor skin conditions to severe systemic diseases. Its pathogenicity is driven by several factors, including enzymes like coagulase and penicillinase, which help in evading the host immune response, and tissue-destroying enzymes such as hyaluronidase.
