Staphylococcal interspersed repeat unit typing of Staphylococcus aureus: evaluation of a new multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis typing method.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 May 2009

Conceição Teresa, Aires de Sousa Marta, de Lencastre Hermínia

Abstract excerpt

The present study evaluates the performance of the staphylococcal interspersed repeat unit (SIRU) method applied to a diverse collection of 104 Staphylococcus aureus isolates previously characterized by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), spa typing, multilocus sequence typing (MLST), and staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec typing for methicillin-resistant S. aureus. The SIRU method distributed the 104...
