Diversity of SCCmec Elements in Staphylococcus aureus as Observed in South-Eastern Germany
PLOS ONE, 2016 SCCmec elements are very important mobile genetic elements in Staphylococci that carry beta-lactam resistance genes mecA/mecC, recombinase genes and a variety of accessory genes. Twelve main types and a couple of variants have yet been described. In addition, there are also other SCC elements harbouring other markers.

International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a major cause of multidrug‐resistant and biofilm‐associated infections, particularly on indwelling medical devices, where conventional antibiotics often exhibit limited efficacy. In this study, we isolated and characterized a novel lytic bacteriophage, SA_SGEB_01, targeting MRSA from hospital ...

Staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) characterization and molecular analysis for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and novel SCCmec subtype IVg isolated from bovine milk in Korea [PDF]
Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2005 To identify the staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) types of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolated from bovine milk, and examine the genetic relatedness between MRSA from bovine milk and MRSA from human isolates.Antimicrobial susceptibility tests were performed on MRSA isolated from bovine milk.

Staphylococcal Cassette Chromosome mec (SCCmec) Classification and Typing Methods: an Overview
Polish Journal of Microbiology, 2011 Meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is one of the main causes of hospital-acquired infections, but since late 1990s also the community-acquired. For better understanding of the S.aureus epidemiology there is an urgent need for creation of new typing method for SCCmec element.

SCCmec and other mobile genetic elements associated with methicillin resistance in staphylococci. [PDF]
, 2013 Staphylococci are common part of human flora but also they are a dangerous pathogen. Among staphylococci strains, methicillin resistance is widespread. The mecA gene, organized in mec complex, is responsible for methicillin resistance. The mec complex is
