Abstract
Objectives: I tested S. aureus and MRSA isolates from the nasal cavity to determine cross infection rates using the mecA gene.
Methods: I recruited 44 students from the Department of Dental Hygiene in Pusan. I measured the presence of the mecA gene from MRSA using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) according to Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) standards with the disk diffusion method.
Results: S. aureus was isolated from 10 people (23%), with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in 2 people. These isolates also showed resistance to oxacillin and cefoxitin according to CLSI guidelines and contained the mecA gene.
Conclusions: Cross infection in the hospital is important for students working at dental clinics in the future, and further information is needed about the risks of cross infection in this population.
