ABSTRACT
Objective To develop a new method for the isolation of heterogeneous methecillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus(hetero-MRSA)and study its application in clinical practice.Methods Both the methods of disc agar diffusion and population analysis were used to detect hetero-MRSA from 60 strains of methecillin susceptible staphylococcus aureus(MSSA) which were identified by VITEK AMS.Results Twelve subclones of hetero-MRSA were isolated by population analysis,while only 2 subclones were identified by disc agar diffusion.Conclusion Population analysis is an effective method for the isolation of hetero-MRSA,and its detection rate is higher than that of disc agar diffusion.The heterogeneous methecillin resistance of MSSA should not be overlooked by medical workers.
