Prevalence of mupirocin resistance in Staphylococcus pseudintermedius.
In the United States, veterinary use of mupirocin is primarily limited to the treatment of canine pyoderma caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius (MRSP). In this study, only 1 of 581 S. pseudintermedius isolates tested was resistant to mupirocin and carried the high-level mupirocin resistance gene, ileS2, on a plasmid.
متن کاملMupirocin Resistance in Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus
Mupirocin is the topical antimicrobial agent which is used for the treatment of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). However the prevalence of mupirocin resistance in MRSA has increased with the extensive and widespread use of this agent in hospital settings. The present study was attempted to evaluate the low level and high level resistance to mupirocin in MRSA isolates by diffe...

متن کاملAcquisition of high-level mupirocin resistance in CoNS following nasal decolonization with mupirocin.
OBJECTIVES The association between mupirocin use and plasmid-based high-level resistance development mediated through mupA in CoNS has not been quantified. We determined acquisition of mupirocin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus and CoNS in surgery patients treated peri-operatively with mupirocin. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients admitted for surgery were treated with nasal mupirocin ointment ...
متن کاملDiversity of staphylococci exhibiting high-level resistance to mupirocin.
Plasmids mediating high-level resistance to mupirocin (MIC greater than 1000 mg/L) in staphylococci from various sources were studied by restriction endonuclease cleavage. Several patterns were obtained but six plasmids isolated from various Staphylococcus aureus and S. epidermidis strains were indistinguishable. The diversity and spread of these plasmids is illustrated.
