Genetic Characteristics of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus argenteus Isolates Collected in the Dutch National MRSA Surveillance from 2008 to 2021

ABSTRACT Staphylococcus argenteus is a recently described member of the Staphylococcus aureus complex (SAC) and is associated with human disease. The frequency and intensity of infections caused by S. argenteus are similar to those of Staphylococcus aureus. S. argenteus can harbor antibiotic resista...
