a
For phage types, results for 225 S. aureus isolates from bovine milk, skin, and milking equipment were considered. For binary types, results for 142 S. aureus isolates were considered. Data in boldface type are predominant PFGE and phage types. Data in italic type are considered to be in agreement under a lenient classification scheme. Abbreviations: MX, miscellaneous; NT, not typeable.
b
Concordant results were obtained for five of eight isolates from miscellaneous categories.
