Abstract excerpt

In an effort to explore the origin and/or reservoirs of the genetic determinant(s) of methicillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus, we examined over 200 strains representing 13 different species within the genus Staphylococcus for the presence of the mecA gene, using a DNA probe internal to th...
