Genotypic diversity between surgical and nasal <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> isolates
2020-05-28
Abstract excerpt
Staphylococcus aureus is a common organism in periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). Little is known about S. aureus genetic diversity in PJI as compared to nasal carriage. We hypothesized PJI S. aureus strains would be associated with increased virulence as compared to those from nasal carriage. Whole genome sequencing and multilocus sequence typing (MLST) was performed to genotype these two populations at high...
