متن کاملPhenotypic and genotypic mupirocin resistance among Staphylococci causing prosthetic joint infection.
Mupirocin MICs and mupA presence were determined in 108 staphylococci causing prosthetic joint infection. Zero of 35 isolates (0%) of methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus, 4/15 (27%) methicillin-resistant S. aureus isolates, 3/16 (19%) methicillin-susceptible coagulase-negative staphylococci, and 11/42 (26%) methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci were mupirocin resistan...
متن کاملComparison of phenotypic versus genotypic methods in the detection of methicillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus.
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE Conventional methods to detect methicillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus are inadequate as expression of resistance is subject to environmental and conditional expression of PBP2a antigen. The objective of the present study was to determine methicillin resistance in S. aureus by conventional susceptibility (oxacillin disc diffusion and oxacillin MIC) and molecular m...
متن کاملEvaluation of Different Phenotypic and Genotypic Methods for Detection of Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)
Background: Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has been emerged as a nosocomial and community acquired pathogen worldwide. There are many challenges for laboratory detection of MRSA. The aim of this study was to compare different phenotypic methods with PCR based method as a gold standard for detection of mecA gene. <b...
متن کاملPhenotypic and Genotypic Analysis of Antimicrobial Resistance among Listeria monocytogenes Isolated from Australian Food Production Chains
The current global crisis of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) among important human bacterial pathogens has been amplified by an increased resistance prevalence. In recent years, a number of studies have reported higher resistance levels among Listeria monocytogenes isolates, which may have implications for treatment of listeriosis infection where resistance to key treatment antimicrobials is not...
