Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To describe antimicrobial resistance and molecular epidemiology of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolated in community settings in Australia. DESIGN AND SETTING: Survey of S. aureus isolates collected prospectively Australia-wide between July 2004 and February 2005; results were compared with those of similar surveys conducted in 2000 and 2002. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Up to 100...
