Typing multidrug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus: conflicting epidemiological data produced by genotypic and phenotypic methods clarified by phylogenetic analysis.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Feb 1996

Abstract excerpt

An outbreak of an unusual tetracycline-sensitive, rifampicin- and ciprofloxacin-resistant, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strain at a large teaching hospital was investigated. Two typing methods, phage typing and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (RFLP-PFGE), gave conflicting results which were clarified by phylogenetic analysis. Phage typing...
