Clonal Diversity of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in UKM Medical Centre: characterisation by Multilocus Sequence Typing of different SCCmec type representatives
Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) has been used to characterise methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates into sequence types (STs) and together with SCCmec typing, form the clonal nomenclature for MRSA. MLST was conducted as per the standard protocol on ten out of 236 isolates col...
