Understanding the Molecular Epidemiology of Community-Acquired Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus in Northern Saudi Arabia: A Spotlight on SCCmec and spa Typing
Conclusion: Community-acquired MRSA clones are prevalent in the healthcare setting. The predominant genotype was t304 (10%), followed by t044 (7%) and t0127 (7%). The SCCmec IVd type was the most common type frequently associated with spa type t304, whereas SCCmec type IVc was primarily associated w...
