Detection of Inducible Resistance to Clindamycin among Methicillin Resistant and Sensitive strains of Staphylococcus aureus from India

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2021
The resistance to MLSB antibiotics, i.e. Macrolide-Lincosamide-Streptogramin B (MLSB), is an increasing problem among Methicillin-resistant Staphylococci. The resistance to macrolides can be by efflux mechanism or via inducible or constitutive resistance.

Inhibition of Erythromycin and Erythromycin-Induced Resistance among Staphylococcus aureus Clinical Isolates

Antibiotics, 2023
The increasing incidence of erythromycin and erythromycin-induced resistance to clindamycin among Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a serious problem. Patients infected with inducible resistance phenotypes may fail to respond to clindamycin.

Supra and subgingival application of antiseptics or antibiotics during periodontal therapy

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Periodontal diseases (gingivitis and periodontitis) are characterized by inflammatory processes which arise as a result of disruption of the balance in the oral ecosystem. According to the current S3 level clinical practice guidelines, therapy of patients with periodontitis involves a stepwise approach that includes the control of the patient ...

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.
