Abstract excerpt

Eighty methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates from three hospitals in Trinidad and Tobago were collected and genotyped using microarray hybridisation. They were found to belong to three distinct MRSA strains. Of the 80 isolates, 76 were assigned to ST239-MRSA-III. They were largely homogeneous, although some variations affected the presence of the enterotoxin A gene, as well as of resistance...
