Cloxacillin-resistant staphylococci in a children's hospital.
Two hundred and thirty-seven selected, penicillin-resistant isolates of Staph. aureus collected over a 13-month period were examined retrospectively for cloxacillin/methicillin resistance; 44 were found to be resistant. Six other strains which had been preserved from an earlier period were also found to be resistant. All 50 cloxacillin-resistant strains were in addition resistant to streptomyci...
متن کاملResistance to cloxacillin among hospital staphylococci.
Cloxacillin-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus were detected by their ability to grow on agar containing 1.6 mug./ml. of cloxacillin, a more reliable method than the disc-diffusion test. At Sefton General Hospital, Liverpool, between 1963 and 1965, there was an increase in the number of infections among in-patients that were caused by staphylococci resistant to cloxacillin despite the f...

متن کاملprevalence of methicillin resistant coagulase negative staphylococci in a tertiary care hospital
background and objectives: presence of methicillin and multidrug resistance has associated coagulase negative staphylococci (cns) with high morbidity and mortality worldwide. the present study was carried out to study the susceptibility pattern of cns to various antimicrobial agents and to determine the prevalence of cns methicillin resistance in our hospital setting. materials and methods: a t...
متن کاملMethicillin-resistant staphylococci.
Strains of staphylococci resistant to methicillin were identified immediately after introduction of this drug. Methicillin-resistant strains have unusual properties, the most notable of which is extreme variability in expression of the resistance trait. The conditions associated with this heterogeneous expression of resistance are described. Methicillin resistance is associated with production ...
