New Quinone Antibiotics against Methicillin-Resistant S. aureus. [PDF]

Antibiotics (Basel), 2021
There is an urgent need for the development of new antibiotics. Here, we describe the inhibitory activity of new quinone compounds against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC® 43300), methicillin-sensitive S. aureus (ATCC® 29213), and two clinical isolates from Chile (ISP-213 and ISP-214). We observed 99.9% reduction in viability within 2

Relationship between mortality and molecular epidemiology of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia.

PLoS ONE, 2022
Staphylococcus aureus is the primary cause of bacteremia, and methicillin-resistant S. aureus bacteremia is associated with a high mortality rate. Methicillin-resistant S.

Molecular epidemiology of methicillin-resistant S. aureus in the ICU setting [PDF]

Intensive Care Medicine, 2014
There were 62 MRSA strains from respiratory samples (57; 92 %) or blood (5; 8 %): overall 54 (87 %) HA-MRSA and 8 (13 %) CA-MRSA; respiratory samples accounted for 50 (93 %) and 7 (87.5 %) of HA-MRSA and CA-MRSA strains, respectively. The molecular characterization and spa typing analysis are reported in Table 1: most MRSA had SCCmec II (35 cases, 56.4

Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) at ambient freshwater beaches [PDF]

Journal of Water and Health, 2014
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are a threat to human health worldwide, and although detected at marine beaches, they have been largely unstudied at freshwater beaches. Genes indicating S. aureus (SA; femA) and methicillin resistance (mecA) were detected at 11 and 12 of 13 US Great Lakes beaches and in 18% or 27% of 287 recreational ...

Is methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus replacing methicillin-susceptible S. aureus? [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2011
Despite extensive research on the emergence of and treatments for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), prior studies have not rigorously evaluated the impact of methicillin resistance on the overall incidence of S. aureus infections. Yet, there are direct clinical and research implications of determining whether methicillin-susceptible S.
