Many microbiology lboratories now require reliable routine phenotypic methods to detect methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in the absence of genotypic facilities. The mainstay is simplicity and cost effectivenes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of various phenotypic methods to detect methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus
