Abstract:
Objective To establish multiple‐locus variable‐number tandem repeat assay(MLVA) genotyping database for clinical isolates of methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA) in Kunming area and analyse the prevalence status of MRSA in hos‐pital ,through establishing a classification method for MRSA by homology MLVA which was appropriate to routine application in clinical laboratory .Methods A total of 111 strains of MRSA isolated by the Clinical Microbiology Chamber of the First People′s Hospital of Kunming City from October 2010 to December 2013 were collected .The polymerase chain reaction(PCR) amplification and electrophoresis for analysis of PCR products were carried out for the seven sites of variable number tandem repeats(VNTR) , classification of strain based on genotypes was carried out ,as well .Results The sequencing results of VNTR09‐01 site showed 9 bp repetitive sequence elements whose regularity was not strong ,and the repetitive elements was mutable .The 111 isolates were divid‐ed into 25 kinds of genotypes(A -Y) ,among which genotype G ,A and B were the main types ,accounted for 47 .7% ,13 .5% and 8 .1% respectively .Conclusion MLVA could be generally applied in the seven sites of VNTR in this study .Some departments might exit concentrated epidemic of homologous MRSA strains ,which is worthy of being paid more attention .
