Rapid identification and typing of Staphylococcus aureus by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of the aroA gene

The Staphylococcus aureus aroA gene, which encodes 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase, was used as a target for the amplification of a 1,153-bp DNA fragment by PCR with a pair of primers of 24 and 19 nucleotides. The PCR products, which were detected by agarose gel electrophoresis, were amp...
