Abstract

Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a kind of pathogenic bacteria which can lead to food poisoning, hospital, and community infections. S. aureus and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) have become headaches for public health worldwide. Therefore, strengthening the detection of S. aureus and MRSA is a critical step to prevent and control its spread and infection. This review summarized multiple detection methods (electrochemical, optical, and other biosensors) for sensitive and efficient detection of nonresistant and resistant S. aureus. First, we have introduced the principle and methods of detection platform for S. aureus and MRSA. We also contrasted various detection strategies. Finally, the current situation and prospect of S. aureus and MRSA detection in the future are explored in depth, and its development direction of detection methods is also predicted. In this review, we found that although biosensors have shown tremendous brilliance in the field of monitoring, they are currently in the experimental stage. It can be certain that we are very close to entering the commercialization stage. The point-of care testing available to nonprofessionals will become a new direction. We firmly believe that the monitoring system will be more perfect and stable and public life will be healthier and safer.
