Abstract excerpt

Worldwide dissemination of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) clones is a well-characterised phenomenon. Two hundred isolates of MRSA recovered from 17 Colombian hospitals collected between 2001 and 2003 were characterised by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). A new dominant electrophoretic pattern unrelated to previously characterised clones in Colombia was detected in 137 (68.5%) of these...
