CHARACTERIZATION OF STAPHYLOCOCCAL CASSETTE CHROMOSOME MEC TYPES IN METHICILLIN-RESISTANT STAPHYLOCOCCUS INTERMEDIUS STRAINS ISOLATED FROM DOGS
SCCmec types in mecA-positive S. intermedius strains were characterized by using multiplex PCR method described previously by Oliveira and Lencastre [11]. A total of 100 preliminary identified S. intermedius isolates were tested to determine their species identify and mecA gene encoding methicillin...
