Molecular characterization of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus genotype ST764-SCCmec type II in Thailand
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a significant causative agent of hospital-acquired infections. We characterized MRSA isolated from August 2012 to July 2015 from Thammasat University Hospital. Genotypic characterization of MRSA SCCmec type II and III isolates were scrutinized by...
