^aC-1 and C-2 were isolated from same patient; C-16 and C-18 were isolated from same patient.

^bMSSA, methicillin-sensitive S. aureus; MRSA, methicillin-resistant S. aureus. + indicates the strain tested positive for methicillin resistance; – indicates the strain tested negative for methicillin resistance but is methicillin sensitive.
