Quality control of direct molecular diagnostics for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

Alex van Belkum1, Hubert G M Niesters, William G MacKay, Willem B van Leeuwen.   

Abstract

Ten samples containing various amounts of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), methicillin-susceptible S. aureus, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis (MRSE), and combinations thereof were distributed to 51 laboratories for molecular diagnostics testing. Samples containing 10(2) to 10(3) MRSA cells were frequently reported to be negative. MRSE samples were scored as negative by all commercial tests but by only two out of three in-house tests.
