Cfr-Mediated Linezolid-Resistance among Methicillin-Resistant Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci from Infections of Humans

Four methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci (MRCoNS), one Staphylococcus haemolyticus and three Staphylococcus cohnii, from infections of humans collected via the Ministry of Health National Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Net (Mohnarin) program in China were identified as linezolid-resistant. These four isolates were negative for the 23S rRNA mutations, but positive for t...

High quality draft genome sequence of Staphylococcus cohnii subsp. cohnii strain hu-01

Staphylococcus cohnii subsp. cohnii belongs to the family Staphylococcaceae in the order Bacillales, class Bacilli and phylum Firmicutes. The increasing relevance of S. cohnii to human health prompted us to determine the genomic sequence of Staphylococcus cohnii subsp. cohnii strain hu-01, a multidrug-resistant isolate from a hospital in China. Here we describe the features of S. cohnii subsp. ...

First report of Staphylococcal clinical isolates in Mexico with linezolid resistance caused by cfr: evidence of in vivo cfr mobilization.

An oxazolidinone resistance mechanism (Cfr) was recently described in human isolates of staphylococci (18). Cfr causes posttranscriptional methylation of the 23S rRNA (A2503), affecting drugs belonging to several antimicrobial classes (10). cfr-carrying isolates recovered from human clinical specimens are still rare (4, 6); however, cases were reported in the United States (12), Colombia (18), ...

Reduced biofilm production associated with increasing linezolid MICs among linezolid-resistant staphylococci.

Sir, To follow-up our previous finding of reduced polystyrene adherence accompanying the acquisition of linezolid resistance in a clinical bloodstream isolate of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), we evaluated the polystyrene adherence properties of linezolid-resistant staphylococci obtained from our institution as well as isolates obtained from multiple medical centres through...

Antimicrobial Susceptibility of Oxacillin-resistant Staphylococcus Spp. Isolated from Poultry Products

The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of staphylococci in raw poultry products intended for human consumption and to determine antimicrobial susceptibility, particularly of oxacillin-resistant isolates. Poultry (chicken) liver as representative samples were randomly selected in different retail markets. Isolation of staphylococci was performed using general and selective nutri...

Biofilm Formation and Antimicrobial Susceptibility of Staphylococcus epidermidis Strains from a Hospital Environment

The hospital environment microflora comprise a wide variety of microorganisms which are more or less pathogenic and where staphylococci are one of the most common types. The aim of the presented study was to evaluate the prevalence of the biofilm forming coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) in a hospital environment as a risk factor for nosocomial infections. Among 122 isolated and tested st...
