Demonstration of staphylococci with inducible macrolide-lincosamide-streptogramin B (MLSB) resistance in sewage and river water and of the capacity of anhydroerythromycin to induce MLSB

Prevalence of Macrolide-Lincosamide-Streptogramin B (MLSB) Resistance in S. aureus Isolated from Patients in Tehran, Iran

Background and Objectives: Staphylococcus aureus is an important cause of nosocomial and community-acquired infections in every region of the world. Clindamycin is one of the alternative agents used to treat S. aureus infections and accurate identification of clindamycin resistance is important to prevent therapeutic failure. Unfortunately, inducible clindamycin resistance is ...

Prevalence of Macrolide-Lincosamide-Streptogramin B (MLSB) Resistance in Staphybcoccus aureus Isolated from Patients in Tehran, Iran

Background and Objectives: Staphylococcus aureus is an important cause of nosocomial and community-acquired infections in every region of the world. Clindamycin is one of the alternative agents used to treat S. aureus infections and accurate identification of clindamycin resistance is important to prevent therapeutic failure. Unfortunately, inducible clindamycin resistance is not detected by st...

Constitutive and Inducible Clindamycin Resistance Frequencies among Staphylococcus sp. Coagulase Negative Isolates in Al-Basrah Governorate, Iraq

Background: Antibiotics called macrolide, lincosamide and streptogramin B (MLSB) are being used to treat staphylococci infections. Multiple pathways that impart resistance to MLSB antibiotics have been confirmed to cause clinical failure. The present work aimed to determine the frequency of constitutive and inducible clindamycin resistant among coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) isolates o...
