background and objectives: macrolide, lincosamide and streptogramin type b (mlsb) antibiotics are important in the treatment of staphylococcus aureus infections and existence of isolates with ability to resist against mlsb antibiotics is worrisome. materials and methods: in this cross sectional study, 101 s. aureus isolates were collected from patients of five selected hospitals in tehran over ...

background: clindamycin inducible resistant staphylococcus aureus (s.aureus) isolates can cause failure in treatment with this antibiotic. biofilm production via polysaccharide intercellular adhesion (pia) contributes in the colonization of s. aureus, resulting in the initiation of different diseases. the aim of this study was to detect icaadbc genes among isolates of s.aureus with inducible re...
