Predominance and emergence of clones of hospital-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in Malaysia.

We define the epidemiology of predominant and sporadic methicillin- resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains in a central teaching and referral hospital in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. This is done on the basis of spa sequencing, multilocus sequence typing (MLST), staphylococcal cassette chromosome...
