Detection Of Methicillin Resistance In Staphylococcus Aureus By Disk Diffusion And PCR Methods
Background and Objective: Methicillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus is an increasingly important clinical problem. A chromosomal gene, mecA, mediates resistance to penicillinase-resistant penicillins such as methicillin and oxacillin in Staphylococcus aureus. We evaluated the validity of disk diffusion test by using oxacillin, methicillin an...
متن کاملDetection of Methicillin-Resistance Gene in Staphylococcus aureus Isolated from Traditional White Cheese in Iran
Background & Aims of the Study: Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is considered as a major pathogen in public health concern. The objectives of this study were to firstly determine antibiotic sensitivity among Staphylococcus aureus isolated from traditional Iranian white cheese during 2015 from Hamedan province of Iran; and secondly to estimate the presence of ...
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 کاملComparison of Susceptibility Testing Methods for the Detection of Methicillin/Oxacillin Resistance in Staphylococcus Aureus
Objective: To compare the accuracy of disk diffusion method and E-test for the detection of methicillin resistance and low-level methicillin-resistance in Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and the PBP2a latex agglutination test for confirmation. Materials and Methods: A total of 76 methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA) isolates from different clinical specimens were tested by disk diffusion me...
متن کاملPrevalence of Vancomycin Resistance in Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus
Background & Aims: Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common pathogens in nosocomial infections. Vancomycin is the most important therapeutic drug of choice for treatment of infections caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains. Therefore, vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (VRSA) or vancomycin-intermediate Staphylococcus aureus (VISA) strains are warning...
