Usefulness of PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism typing of the coagulase gene to discriminate arbekacin-resistant methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains.
We compared the results of two typing methods for 678 strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-susceptible S. aureus. PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism typing of the coagulase gene was a more reliable method than coagulase serotyping from the viewpoint of arbekacin resistance.
متن کاملRestriction Fragment Length Polymorphism Typing of Staphylococcus aureus Strains Isolated from Bovine Mastitis and Dairy Products in Ahvaz, Iran, Using of Digested Coagulase Gene
Staphylococcus aureus is a major pathogen in the transmission of diseases from animals to humans and vice-versa.Various infections, such as mastitis in cattle, sheep and goats, as well as gastroenteritis due to food poisoning in humans are the most frequent problems caused by S. aureus. The bacteria also lead to severe economic losses in dairy industry. A major virulence facto...
متن کاملDetection anD typing methoDs of methicillin-resistant StaphylococcuS aureuS strains
Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most important pathogens in hospital infections and its importance in the community is also prominent, especially since the 1990’s. Today methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is one of the most common causes of hospital infection, causing 40-70% of staphylococcal infections in intensive care units. Data on the prevalence of MRSA isolates differ ...
متن کاملThe Frequency of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Coagulase Gene Polymorphism in Egypt
The current study aimed to use Coagulase gene polymorphism to identify methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) subtypes isolated from nasal carriers in Minia governorate, Egypt, evaluate the efficiency of these methods in discriminating variable strains, and compare these subtypes with antibiotypes. A total of 400 specimens were collected from nasal carriers in Minia governorate, Egy...
متن کاملIS6110 Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism Typing of Drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis Strains from Northeast South Africa
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a deadly infectious disease affecting millions of people worldwide; 95% of TB cases, with 98% of death occur in developing countries. The situation in South Africa merits special attention. A total of 21,913 sputum specimens of suspected TB patients from three provinces of South Africa routinely submitted to the TB laboratory of Dr. George Mukhari (DGM) Hospital were a...
