2022-05-20
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> MRSA is the causative agent of serious infections. MRSA isolates carry mec A gene which confers resistance to all β-lactams, markedly limiting the therapeutic options. SCC mec typing enables strain-based MRSA identification. This study aimed to identify the prevalent SCC mec types among clinical MRSA isolates in Alexandria, Egypt, and their association with antibiotic resistance. One hundred...
