Analysis of genetic diversity among Staphylococcus aureus isolates from patients with deep-seated and superficial staphylococcal infections using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis.

Abstract excerpt

Molecular typing was performed to reveal the genetic diversity among Staphylococcus aureus strains causing deep-seated versus superficial staphylococcal infections. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis with cluster analysis, plasmid and antimicrobial susceptibility profiling of 50 S. aureus strains collected from these 2 groups of patients were undertaken. A total of 19 (designated A through S) distinct genotypes...
