| name | Staphylococcus aureus MLVA profile [Type] in Isolate or Specimen by Molecular genetics method | ||
| description | Multiple-locus variable-number tandem repeat (VNTR) analysis (MLVA) is a molecular genetics typing method that characterizes the number of repeats at multiple VNTR loci in a S. aureus isolate. The resulting MLVA profile is used as a genetic fingerprint for typing microbes, tracking outbreaks and comparing strains. | ||
