Staphylococcal interspersed repeat unit typing has previously been shown to have the ability to discriminate between epidemic methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains in the United Kingdom. The current study illustrates its ability to distinguish between strains within an endemic setting thereby providing a rapid transportable typing method for the identification of transmission events.
葡萄球菌散布重复单元分型先前已被证明有能力区分英国流行的耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌菌株。当前的研究表明了其在地方流行环境中区分菌株的能力,从而为识别传播事件提供了一种快速可移动的分型方法。
