Abstract

The present study was designed to evaluate the reliability of fluorescent PCR detection of the mecA of MRSA specimens. Periodic reviews of the specimens were performed to evaluate the concordance between the fluorescent PCR and phenotypic assays. Our purpose was to provide reference data for the rapid detection of specimens for clinical testing departments, particularly the clinical laboratories in hospitals.
