Abstract
Swabs from the patient’s nares also grew a methicillin resistant S aureus MRSA with a susceptibility pattern identical to the one of the wound isolate Both isolates were nontypable by pulsed field gel electrophoresis analysis after digestion with the classic Sma I endonuclease but resulted in a typical banding pattern encountered with strains of pig origin when digested with the Xma Ienzyme Furthermore the isolates were negative for the PantonValentine leucocidin genes
