contagious agent


Explanation:
This would be the translation given your context (none).

infectious agent


Explanation:
This is the term I remember seeing most frequently when I worked as a chemist for a pharmaceutical company.

S. aureus is the infectious agent in the most severe and costly episodes of catheter-related sepsis (1).

http://iai.asm.org/cgi/content/full/73/8/4596

Staphylococcus resistance to current antibiotic treatments is accelerating, with MRSA (Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus) being a leading hospital-acquired infectious agent, causing up to 60% of all staphylococcal infections.

http://gateway.nlm.nih.gov/MeetingAbstracts/ma?f=102265751.h...

Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) is essential for elimination of Staphylococcus aureus, the main infectious agent responsible for osteomyelitis.

http://www.jhc.org/cgi/content/full/53/5/665

INFECTIOUS AGENT (S)
Staphylococcus aureus
(Reduced or Resistant Susceptibility to Vancomycin)
