Van Leeuwen, Willem B., Van Pelt, Cindy, Luijendijk, Ad, Verbrugh, Henri A., Goessens, Wil H. F.
The slide agglutination test MRSA-Screen (Denka Seiken Co., Niigata, Japan) was compared with the mecA PCR (“gold standard”) for the detection of methicillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus....
Multilocus Sequence Typing of Staphylococcus aureus with DNA Array Technology
Van Leeuwen, Willem B., Jay, Corinne, Snijders, Susan, Durin, Nathalia, Lacroix, Bruno, Verbrugh, Henry A., ...
A newly developed oligonucleotide array suited for multilocus sequence typing (MLST) of Staphylococcus aureus strains was analyzed with two strain collections in a two-center study. MLST allele...
Natural population dynamics and expansion of pathogenic clones of Staphylococcus aureus
Melles, Damian C., Gorkink, Raymond F.J., Boelens, Hélène A.M., Snijders, Susan V., Peeters, Justine K., Moorhouse, Michael J., ...
The population structure of Staphylococcus aureus carried by healthy humans was determined using a large strain collection of nonclinical origin (n = 829). High-throughput amplified fragment length...
Host- and Tissue-Specific Pathogenic Traits of Staphylococcus aureus
Van Leeuwen, Willem B., Melles, Damian C., Alaidan, Alwaleed, Al-Ahdal, Mohammed, Boelens, Hélène A. M., Snijders, Susan V., ...
Comparative genomics were used to assess genetic differences between Staphylococcus aureus strains derived from infected animals versus colonized or infected humans. A total of 77 veterinary isolates...
Van Belkum, Alex, Melles, Damian C., Snijders, Susan V., Van Leeuwen, Willem B., Wertheim, Heiman F. L., Nouwen, Jan L., ...
The Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin gene cluster, egc, was detected in isolates from healthy individuals and in those from patients with bacteremia. The egc genes cooccur and are slightly enriched...
