Identification of Staphylocoagulase Genotypes I–X and Discrimination of Type IV and V Subtypes by Multiplex PCR Assay for Clinical Isolates of Staphylococcus aureus
2010-07-30
Abstract excerpt
Staphylocoagulase (SC) is a major phenotypic determinant of Staphylococcus aureus. Antigenic specificity of SC (SC serotype) has been classified into at least 10 types and employed as an epidemiological marker. In the present study, from the sequence information of SC genes, a novel multiplex PCR assay was developed to determine SC genotypes (SC types) I–X corresponding to SC serotypes I–X, respectively, and to di...
