Classifying <i>spa</i> Types in Complexes Improves Interpretation of Typing Results for Methicillin-Resistant <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>

1 Jul 2006

Abstract excerpt

A total of 382 isolates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus originating from three Austrian regions and one adjacent Italian region (Vienna, Lower Austria, North Tyrol, and South Tyrol) were typed by DNA sequence analysis of the variable repeat region of the protein A gene (spa typing). The strain collection consisted of arbitrarily chosen isolates originating from clinical specimens taken in the years...
