Incidence of clindamycin resistance in clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2011
Clindamycin is used in Staphylococcal infections and resistance patterns to Clindamycin vary between institutions. Inducible Clindamycin resistance is detected by the CLSI recommended D-test. This study was done to estimate the incidence of constitutive

Incidence of Constitutive and Inducible Clindamycin Resistance in Clinical Isolates of Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus

Walailak Journal of Science and Technology, 2011
Without the double-disk test, all the Staphylococcus aureus isolates with inducible clindamycin resistance would have been misclassified as clindamycin susceptible, resulting in an underestimated clindamycin resistance rate.
