Predominance of ST22-MRSA-IV clone and emergence of clones for methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus clinical isolates collected from a tertiary teaching hospital over a two-year period
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is one of the most common nosocomial pathogens, causing mild to severe infections. This study aimed to determine the genotypic and phenotypic characteristics of clinical MRSA isolates collected from a teaching hospital from 2014 - 2015. These isolat...
