An in-house PCR was compared with the GenoType® MRSA and the MRSA EVIGENETM tests, both of which corresponded 100% with the results of in-house PCR. The cefoxitin disk diffusion method was superior to both the oxacillin disk diffusion and minimum inhibitory concentration tests for predicting the mecA status. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
