Double-Locus Sequence Typing Using clfB and spa , a Fast and Simple Method for Epidemiological Typing of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus

8 Nov 2006

Abstract excerpt

Sequence-based epidemiological typing of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has recently been promoted because it results in unambiguous data sets that can be organized in local and global databases. The replacement of previous typing methods, such as the highly discriminatory pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), has been attempted with various markers and typing schemes, including spa typing...
