Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is one of the most important causes hospital infections worldwide. S. tends to be resistant multiple antibiotics. High-level resistance antibiotics caused by mecA gene, which encodes an alternative penicillin-binding protein, PBP 2a. The present study was aimed detect in potential isolates clinical wastewater. Three wastewater samples were coll...
The in vitro activity of nafcillin, oxacillin, and methicillin alone and in combination with gentamicin and tobramycin against 30 strains of enterococci was investigated. The penicillinase-resistant penicillins were less active than penicillin and ampicillin against the enterococci. Nafcillin was more active than oxacillin and methicillin. Sixty-six percent of strains were inhibited by nafcilli...
The prevalence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus is rapidly increasing in healthcare facilities and spreading to the community. Methicillin-resistant S. aureus colonize the skin and open wounds and can interfere with wound healing. Recent studies have shown that ultraviolet light C can kill antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria such as methi...
backgroundandobjectives:rapidandaccuratedetectionofmethicillinresistantstaphylococcus aureus (mrsa) is an important role of clinical microbiology laboratories to avoid treatment failure. the aim of this study was to compare conventional methods against the e-test minimum inhibitory concentration (mic) method to determine the best phenotypic method. materials and methods: methicillin resistance...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the presence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus spp. in bulk tank milk samples from 288 organic and conventional dairy farms located in New York, Wisconsin, and Oregon from March 2009 to May 2011. Due to recent publications reporting the presence mecC (a mecA homolog not detected by traditional mecA-ba...
PURPOSE To evaluate the fluoroquinolone susceptibilities of ocular isolate coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS), identified at the Microbiology Laboratory - UNIFESP. DESIGN Experimental laboratory investigation. METHODS The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 21 strains of methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci (MRCoNS) and 22 methicillin-sensitive coagulase-negat...
Increased production of penicillin-binding protein PBP 4 is known to increase peptidoglycan cross-linking and contributes to methicillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus. The pbp4 gene shares a 400-nucleotide intercistronic region with the divergently transcribed abcA gene, encoding an ATP-binding cassette transporter of unknown function. Our study revealed that methicillin stimulated abcA t...
The presence of an additional penicillin-binding protein (PBP) was demonstrated in methicillin-resistant strains of Staphylococcus epidermidis, S. haemolyticus, S. hominis, and S. simulans. In these four species, the apparent molecular mass of this protein was analogous to that of PBP 2' of methicillin-resistant S. aureus SR 1550-9. It exhibited a low affinity for methicillin, cephalothin, and ...
Established preoperative antibiotic prophylaxis in cardiac surgery is ineffective against methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS). This case-control study aimed to determine factors predicting deep sternal wound infections due to methicillin-resistant CoNS. All cardiac surgery patients undergoing sternotomy between June 2009 and March 2013 prospectively documented in a Swi...
