Molecular epidemiology of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

Emerging infectious diseases - 1 Jan 2000

Shopsin B, Kreiswirth B N

Abstract excerpt

Subtyping methicillin- resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates and tracking nosocomial infections have evolved from phenotypic to genotypic approaches; most laboratories now depend on pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). We discuss the limitations of current image-based genotyping methods, including PFGE, and the advantages (including ease of entering data into a database) of using DNA sequence...
