<p><strong>Background</strong><strong>:</strong> In this study we aimed at detecting the enterotoxin A and B gene of <em>S. aureus</em> in clinical samples of patients attending health centers in Zahedan using molecular methods.</p>
<p><strong>Materials and Methods: </strong>A cross-sectional study was carried out in which 40 samples of <em>S. aureus</em> were obtained from patients in a hospital in Zahedan, Iran. Following the biochemical tests, Identifications were confirmed by PCR with specific primers.</p>
<p><strong>Results:</strong> Among 40 clinical isolates of <em>S. aureus</em> the frequency of sea gene was 2% and the frequency of seb gene was 8% while the frequency of both sea+seb genes was 3%.</p>
<p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> Enterotoxin of <em>S. aureus</em> is one of the main factors in the pathogenesis of various diseases and production of these toxins increase the incidence of diseases, so rapid treatment is needed for enterotoxin gene expression.</p>
