Abstract excerpt

To define the stability of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in vivo, 22 isolates collected at one New York institution in 1989 and 1990 were studied. All 22 belonged to one of two distinct methicillin-resistant phenotypes (class 3 or 2), which were precisely identified as belonging to two distinct genotypes. Genotypic classification was based on restriction analysis of chromosomal DNA with EcoRI...
