Strain typing and characterization of virulence genes in clinical <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> isolates from Kenya

2018-08-13

Abstract excerpt

Staphylococcusaureus strain typing is an important surveillance tool as particular strains have been associated with virulence and community and hospital acquired MRSA outbreaks globally. This study sought to determine the circulating strain types of S.aureus in Kenya and establish the virulence genes among the strains. Clinical S.aureus isolates from 3 hospitals in Kenya were sequenced on the Illumina Miseq and...
