Abstract excerpt

In this study, we have compared genomic DNA fingerprintings among isolates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) by using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). Chromosomal fragments digested with Sma I were most suitable for the PFGE separation, giving 15-20 fragments of sizes ranging from about 30-1,500 kb. Thirty-one distinctive fragment patterns were identified in 111 isolates of MRSA. On...
