Transfer of antibiotic resistance in Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]

, 2017
Staphylococcus aureus is a serious human pathogen with remarkable adaptive powers. Antibiotic-resistant clones rapidly emerge mainly by acquisition of antibiotic-resistance genes from other S. aureus strains or even from other genera.

Lysogeny In Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1971
Summary Lysogenicity in coagulase-negative staphylococci was tested by incubating the strains in the presence of Mitomycin C. Among 173 strains examined, 45 were found to release phage. Twenty-eight of these phages were obtained from 90 strains belonging to Staphylococcus epidermidis biotype 1 (Baird-Parker, 1965).

Mupirocin resistance in coagulase-negative staphylococci [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1993
High-level mupirocin resistance in coagulase-negative staphylococci isolated from patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis was investigated by transfer of the resistance determinants, usually in the form of a plasmid, to Staphylococcus aureus strains, cleavage of the plasmid by restriction endonuclease and hybridisation with a probe comprising a 4.05 kb
