Methicillin resistance & inducible clindamycin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus
Indian Journal of Medical Research, 2016 Background & objectives: Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates with inducible clindamycin resistance (iCR) are resistant to erythromycin and sensitive to clindamycin on routine testing and inducible clindamycin resistance can only be identified by D-test.

Phenotypic detection of inducible clindamycin resistance among Staphylococcus aureus isolates [PDF]
, 2017 Background: Staphylococcus aureus is a leading cause of nosocomial and community acquired infection in every region of world. Clindamycin is a frequent therapeutic option in the treatment of skin and soft tissue infection caused by Staphylococcus aureus.

Inducible clindamycin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus
Journal of Postgraduate Medicine, 2009 Background: The resistance to antimicrobial agents among Staphylococci is an increasing problem. The resistance to macrolide can be mediated by msr A gene coding for efflux mechanism or via erm gene encoding for enzymes that confer inducible or constitutive resistance to macrolide, lincosamide and Type B streptogramin.

Detection of Inducible Clindamycin Resistance in Staphylococci by Broth Microdilution Using Erythromycin-Clindamycin Combination Wells [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2007 ABSTRACT A study conducted by 11 laboratories investigated the ability of four combinations of erythromycin (ERY) and clindamycin (CC) (ERY and CC at 4 and 0.5, 6 and 1, 8 and 1.5, and 0.5 and 2 μg/ml) in a single well of a broth microdilution panel to predict the presence of inducible CC resistance.

Inducible Clindamycin Resistance in Staphylococci: Should Clinicians and Microbiologists be Concerned? [PDF]
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2005 The increasing incidence of a variety of infections due to Staphylococcus aureus--and, especially, the expanding role of community-associated methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA)--has led to emphasis on the need for safe and effective agents to treat both systemic and localized staphylococcal infections. Unlike most previously noted strains of health
