摘要: Purpose: Methicillin-resistant staphylococci (MRS) are increasingly significant in the hospital setting due to multidrug resistance. Integrons genetic elements that can play a role dissemination of antimicrobial While their is well established gram-negative bacteria, less known about presence integrons gram-positive bacteria. Our aim was investigate class 1 clinical MRS isolates. Methods: One hundred isolates were included study. Identification confirmed by multiplex PCR which staphylococcal 16S rRNA, nuc and mecA genes-specific primers used. The integron investigated with intI 1-specific primers. Results: All methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) positive for genes. coagulase negative (MRCoNS) rRNA mecA, gene. existence not detected all tested. Conclusions: Class clinicial strains have only been shown few studies from East Asia. Further needed order determine significance DNA transfer between
