TST and bathing suit ichthyosis: We characterized the identified ST398 isolates by antimicrobial susceptibility testing and luk, tst, eta, and etb gene detection.Using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) typing, multiple-locus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis (MLVA) and prophagic gene content analysis, we studied the genetic diversity of the population of BSI isolates and compared BSI isolates with a set of 12 isolates representative of the major “classical” pig-borne clones.
