[Usefulness of phage ORF typing, a rapid genotyping method as a molecular and epidemiological method for detecting methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus].

Abstract excerpt

Surveillance is very important for preventing the nosocomial spread of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), and the pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) method has long been used to identify the infection source and route as a molecular and epidemiological genotyping method. However, the use of the method in routine clinical laboratory measurements is difficult due to its complicated procedures....
