Molecular typing of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains by PCR-RFLP of SPA gene: a reference laboratory perspective.

Indian journal of medical microbiology - 1 Jan 2000

Mehndiratta P L, Bhalla P, Ahmed A, Sharma Y D

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To characterize methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains by molecular typing based on polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) of spa gene and to assess the utility of spa genotyping over bacteriophage typing in the discrimination of the strains. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Studies were undertaken on 125 MRSA strains representing the most predominant...
