Staphylococcus aureus MLVA type in Isolate or Specimen by Molecular genetics method

S. aureus MLVA type Islt/Spm

Definition

  • This test identifies the MRSA molecular typing. The MLVA type identifies the type of staphylococcus aureus strain using variable-number tandem repeat (VNTR) loci. are regions of coding and non-coding nucleotide repeats that are adjacent to each other and that vary in number This different microorganisms. Analysis of VNTR is the basis for MLVA (multilocus VNTR analysis)
