Abstract

ABSTRACT Staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCC mec ) types and Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL) gene carriage were compared among suspected community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus MRSA (CA-MRSA) and health care-associated MRSA (HA-MRSA) isolates. CA-MRSA isolates carried the SCC mec type IV complex, and most were PVL positive. The HA-MRSA isolates carried the SCC mec type II complex and did not harbor the PVL genes.
