Genetic Characterization of Methicillin-Resistant <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> Isolates from Human Bloodstream Infections: Detection of MLS<sub>B</sub> Resistance

In this study we aimed to characterize antimicrobial resistance in methicillin-resistant <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> (MRSA) isolated from bloodstream infections as well as the associated genetic lineages of the isolates. Sixteen MRSA isolates were recovered from bacteremia samples from...
