Abstract excerpt
Humans may serve as a reservoir host of Staphylococcus aureus, resulting in transmission to animals. Previously, we used RNA polymerase beta subunit gene (rpoB)-based genotyping and classified S. aureus strains into rpoB sequence types (RSTs). According to our previous work, the predominant genotypes of S. aureus in humans and cows differ in Korea, but some predominant genotypes (RST4-1 and RST2-1) in humans have...
