Research Abstract |
This study is a nationwide survey of all clinical methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA) isolates, including community-acquired MRSA(CA-MRSA), in Japan. Only 4(2. 3%) of 171 SCCmec type IV strains were Panton-Valentine leukocidin(lukS/ F-PV)-positive. Thus, this result indicates a unique feature of SCCmec type IV strains in Japan. The information in this study not only is important in terms of local public health but will also contribute to an understanding of epidemic clones of CA-MRSA
