Detection of inducible and constitutive clindamycin resistance among Staphylococcus aureus isolates in a tertiary care hospital, Eastern India

Avicenna Journal of Medicine, 2016
Introduction: Clindamycin is an excellent drug for skin and soft tissue Staphylococcus aureus infections, but resistance mediated by inducible macrolide-lincosamide-streptogramin B (iMLS B ) phenotype leads to in vivo therapeutic failure even though they

Prevalence of Constitutive and Inducible Clindamycin Resistance among Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Isolates in a Tertiary Care Hospital, Kashmir Valley

Journal of Medical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 2022
Introduction: The increased frequency of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infections has led to renewed interest in the macrolide-lincosamide streptogramin B (MLS) group of antibiotics. Resistance to these antibiotics may be constitutive or

Incidence of constitutive and inducible clindamycin resistance among hospital-associated Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]

3 Biotech, 2013
Clindamycin is one of the important alternative antibiotics in the therapy of Staphylococcus aureus infections. Clinical failure of clindamycin therapy has been reported due to multiple mechanisms that confer resistance to macrolides, lincosamides and Streptogramin B (MLSB) antibiotics.

Evaluation of constitutive and inducible resistance to clindamycin in clinical samples of Staphylococcus aureus from a tertiary hospital [PDF]

Revista Da Sociedade Brasileira De Medicina Tropical, 2014
Infections caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) have become common in hospitals and the community environment, and this wide resistance has limited patient treatment. Clindamycin (CL) represents an important alternative therapy for infections caused by S. aureus.

Resistance to tetracycline, erythromycin, and clindamycin in the Bacteroides fragilis group: inducible versus constitutive tetracycline resistance

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1981
The transferability of plasmid-mediated tetracycline, erythromycin, and clindamycin resistance was studied in 63 clinical isolates of the Bacteroides fragilis group. Of 48 strains which were tetracycline resistant (Tcr), the regulation of both the expression of Tcr and its transferability was shown to be under inducible control by tetracycline.

Serotypes, sequence types, and erythromycin resistance of maternal colonizing group B Streptococcus: implications for neonatal early-onset disease prevention [PDF]

Frontiers in Pediatrics
Intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis for maternal group B Streptococcus (GBS) colonization depends on the assumption that a woman identified as colonized receives an antibiotic active against her own isolate, an assumption that routine susceptibility ...

Detecting erm-Mediated Inducible Macrolide–Lincosamide–Streptogramin B Resistance in Anaerobic Clinical Isolates [PDF]

Antibiotics
Background: Inducible macrolide–lincosamide–streptogramin B (iMLSB) resistance is well defined in Gram-positive aerobes but remains poorly characterized in anaerobes, where standardized detection strategies are lacking.

Constitutive and Inducible Clindamycin Resistance Frequencies among Staphylococcus sp. Coagulase Negative Isolates in Al-Basrah Governorate, Iraq

Reports of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2022
Antibiotics called macrolide, lincosamide and streptogramin B (MLSB) are being used to treat staphylococci infections. Multiple pathways that impart resistance to MLSB antibiotics have been confirmed to cause clinical failure. The present work aimed to determine the frequency of constitutive and inducible clindamycin resistant among coagulase-negative ...

Genetic Toolbox Expansion Enables Constitutively Fluorescent Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus for Functional Microbiome Research. [PDF]

Microb Biotechnol
We expanded the genetic toolkit for Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus by enabling direct cloning, and leveraging five constitutive promoters and a repressor system. Fluorescent L. rhamnosus strains with different fluorochromes engineered with the high‐performing PtlpA promoter demonstrated functionality in microbial competition assays, supporting microbiome
