Abstract excerpt
The new PCR-based genotyping technique, fluorescent amplified fragment length polymorphism (fAFLP), was compared for discriminatory power and reproducibility with standard phenotypic methods, a coagulase gene (coa) restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) method and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), in typing 34 isolates and four reference strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus...
