DETECTION OF METHICILLIN-RESISTANT AND METHICILLIN-SENSITIVE STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS IN BIOLOGICAL SAMPLES |
摘要 |
Disclosed are methods of identifying a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) or methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) in a sample. The present invention provides a diagnostic method comprising modification of sequences of S. aureus by converting non-methylated cytosine residues ultimately into thymidine residues in the target nucleic acid. The invention further provides for the detection of modified sequences derived from the spa gene, the mecA gene, and the integrated SCCmec cassette of S. aureus.
