Abstract

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus ST45 is epidemic worldwide. This study contributed to the awareness of the Chinese hyper-virulent MRSA ST45 strains and served as a timely reminder of its wide dissemination of clonotypes. Further, we provide novel insights for prevention from the perspective of bloodstream infections. ST45-SCC mec V is a clonotype deserving special attention in China, and we performed genetic and phenotypic analyses for the first time on it.
