Fig. 2From: Antimicrobial susceptibility, virulence determinants profiles and molecular characteristics of Staphylococcus epidermidis isolates in Wenzhou, eastern ChinaeBURST analysis of S. epidermidis clinical isolates (a) and colonized isolates (b). The eBURST algorithm clustered all of the 60 STs isolated of clinical isolates into clonal complex 2 (CC2) (166/223; 74.40%), 7 minor CCs (CC365, CC193, CC227, CC171, CC33, CC326, and CC66, 16/223, 7.17%), and 29 singletons. Among the 106 colonized isolates, 5 CCs were identified, including CC2 (77/106; 72.64%), CC365 (4 isolates), CC193 (1 isolates), CC227 (1 isolates) and CC66 (1 isolates)Back to article page
