Abstract: Molecular characterization of Staphylococcus aureus isolates from nosocomial and community-acquired infections using accurate, reproducible, and rapid typing methods is essential for the fast identification of prevalent and epidemic strains. Although sequence-based spa typing is highly… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0179003
Abstract: Staphylococcus aureus is a leading cause of bacteremia in hospitalized patients. Whether or not S. aureus bacteremia (SAB) is associated with clonality, implicating potential nosocomial transmission, has not, however, been investigated. Herein, we examined the… read more here.
