Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To determine molecular epidemiology of methicillin-resistant S. aureus in Tanzania using whole genome sequencing. METHODS: DNA from 33 Staphylococcus species was recovered from subcultured archived Staphylococcus isolates. Whole genome sequencing was performed on Illumina Miseq using paired-end 2 × 250 bp protocol. Raw sequence data were analyzed using online tools. RESULTS: Full susceptibility to...
