Whole genome sequencing in the prevention and control of Staphylococcus aureus infection

16 Nov 2012

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Staphylococcus aureus remains a leading cause of hospital-acquired infection but weaknesses inherent in currently available typing methods impede effective infection prevention and control. The high resolution offered by whole genome sequencing has the potential to revolutionise our understanding and management of S. aureus infection. AIM: To outline the practicalities of whole genome sequencing and...
