摘要: Objective—To compare clinical information obtained from medical records of cats with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and methicillin-susceptible S (MSSA) infections, evaluate antibiograms MRSA MSSA for multiple-drug resistance (MDR), characterize the strain type staphylococcal chromosome cassette (SCC)mec each MRSA. Sample Population—70 isolates 46 cats. Procedures—Clinical records, including signalment, signs, histologic examination affected tissues, outcomes, was compared between 2 groups. Composite were statistically. The strains characterized by use pulsed-field gel electrophoresis SCCmec typing. Results—No statistical differences in signalment or subjective signs outcomes detected groups infection. Significant antimicrobial detected, ...
