INDUCIBLE CLINDAMYCIN RESISTANCE AMONG CLINICAL ISOLATES OF STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS [PDF]
Introduction: The resistance to antimicrobial agents among staphylococci is an increasing problem. This has led to renewed interest in the usage of macrolide- lincosamide- streptogramin B (MLSB) antibiotics to treat Staphylococcus aureus infections ...

Assessment of Clindamycin and Erythromycin Resistance, and Inducible Clindamycin Resistance in Streptococcus Group B Isolated from Urinary Samples of Outpatient Women in Tehran [PDF]
Background: Streptococcus group B (GBS) or Streptococcus agalactiae is typically associated with neonatal disease and infection in pregnant women. Mortality of GBS sepsis in neonates is over 50% and is particularly high in preterm infants.

Inducible clindamycin resistance in coagulase negative staphylococci [PDF]
Induced clindamycin resistance poses a major problem for the use of this drug to treat staphylococcal infections. An infectious etiology is often implicated in the presence of CoNS in clinical specimens.

Failure of Clindamycin Treatment of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Expressing Inducible Clindamycin Resistance In Vitro [PDF]
We report a case of a surgical site infection caused by clindamycin-susceptible, erythromycin-resistant methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) that did not respond to treatment with clindamycin. The MRSA isolate obtained after treatment was resistant to clindamycin but was found to be identical by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis to the ...

OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate the in vitro ability of erythromycin to induce clindamycin in erythromycin resistant and clindamycin susceptible clinical isolates of Staphylococci. METHODS: We studied 291 clinical isolates of erythromycin-resistant (ER-R) clindamycin-susceptible Staphylococci (CL-S) at Almana General Hospitals, Al-Khobar, Dammam, Saudi ...
