Analysis of the Genetic Diversity in Methicillin-Resistant <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> Isolates from Bovine Subclinical Mastitis Case in Xinjiang, China

Abstract

The antimicrobial susceptibility of MRSA in this area exhibited multidrug resistance, and clonal complexes CC398 and CC188, which have been reported among human MRSA isolates, do occur in Xinjiang dairy cows. This study provides a foundation for further MRSA monitoring.
