The majority of Staphylococcus aureus infections from Isfahan, Iran, were caused by epidemic methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA) lineages, sequence type 8 (ST8), ST22, ST30, and ST6. The predominant methicillin-resistant S. aureus strain was ST239. We observed a high prevalence of Panton-Valentine leukocidin-positive MSSA strains (19.7%), which is a matter of considerable concern, since these strains have the ability to cause severe infections.
来自伊朗伊斯法罕的大多数金黄色葡萄球菌感染是由流行的耐甲氧西林敏感金黄色葡萄球菌(MSSA)谱系、ST8、ST22、ST30 和 ST6 引起的。主要的耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌菌株是 ST239。我们观察到高比例的携带杀白细胞素 Panton-Valentine 的 MSSA 菌株(19.7%),这令人相当担忧,因为这些菌株有能力引起严重感染。
