Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) cause nosocomial and community infections. MRSA colonization in hospitals has been described as an important risk factor during hospitalization. OBJECTIVE: The colonization characteristics of MRSA was described using the tools of molecular biology. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Between February 2007 and February 2008, 705 patients entering a Colombian...
