Inducible clindamycin resistance in staphylococci isolated from clinical samples.
This study aimed to determine the levels of the macrolides-lincosamides-streptogramins B (MLS(B)) resistance phenotype of Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) isolates from clinical samples. A total of 521 strains of staphylococci, comprising 230 S. aureus and 291 CNS isolates from various clinical samples, were identified by conventional methods. The double-disc tes...
متن کاملInducible Clindamycin Resistance among Staphylococci Isolated from Burn Patients
Clindamycin has been used successfully to treat pneumonia and soft-tissue infections caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. However, inducible clindamycin resistance has been described as a cause of treatment failure of such infections. A total of 159 staphylococcal isolates from different clinical specimens from burn patients in Tripoli Burn Center were tested for inducible cli...
متن کاملIncidence of inducible clindamycin resistance in Staphylococcus pseudintermedius from dogs.
Clindamycin is increasingly used to treat canine pyoderma. Eight of 608 Staphylococcus pseudintermedius isolates were positive for inducible clindamycin resistance by double-disk diffusion testing and PCR detection of ermB. Staphylococcus pseudintermedius isolates that are erythromycin resistant but clindamycin susceptible by in vitro antimicrobial susceptibility testing should be tested for in...
متن کاملInducible clindamycin resistance among clinical isolates of Staphylococci.
INTRODUCTION Clinical failure of clindamycin therapy has been reported due to multiple mechanisms that confer resistance to macrolide, lincosamide and streptogramin antibiotics. This study was undertaken to detect the presence of inducible clindamycin resistance among clinical isolates of staphylococci. MATERIALS AND METHODS The detection of inducible clindamycin resistance was performed by D...

9 Clindamycin is increasingly used to treat canine pyoderma. Eight of 608 Staphylococcus 10 pseudintermedius isolates were positive for inducible clindamycin resistance by D-test and PCR 11 detection of ermB. Staphylococcus pseudintermedius isolates that are erythromycin-resistant but 12 clindamycin-susceptible by in vitro antimicrobial susceptibility testing should be tested for 13 inducible c...
