Abstract
⺠We determine the prevalence of pathogenicity genes among 189 MRSA isolates. ⺠91 Virulence, 42 resistance and 22 set/ssl genes profiles were detected. ⺠We observed a correspondence relationship between clones and pathogenicity genes. ⺠Changes in molecular epidemiology in our institution were produced over time. ⺠We reported the pathogenic potential of prevalent MRSA clones in Spanish hospitals.
