genotypic characterization of staphylococcus aureus strains isolated from rabbit lesions. | since staphylococcal infections are the main pathological problem in rabbit does, the objective of this study was to characterize epidemiologically staphylococcus aureus isolates from different lesion types in rabbits. using 3 genetic markers (coagulase, staphylococcal protein a and clumping factor b genes), 22 different genotypes were identified among 301 isolates recovered from 259 rabbit does with 10 different kinds of chronic purulent lesions. these infected rabbits were obtained from 30 her ... | 2007 | 17208392 |
