Antibiotic resistance in the environment, with particular reference to MRSA [PDF]

, 2008
The introduction of β-lactam antibiotics (penicillins and cephalosporins) in the 1940s and 1950s probably represents the most dramatic event in the battle against infection in human medicine.

Methicillin Potentiates the Effect of Gentamicin on Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1979
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains show an unusual type of resistance at 37°C; only a small subpopulation of cells is resistant to the β-lactam antibiotics. Incubation in the presence of methicillin (MET), however, results in the emergence of a homogenous population highly resistant to MET ...

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.

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]

Nature Reviews Disease Primers, 2018
Since the 1960s, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has emerged, disseminated globally and become a leading cause of bacterial infections in both health-care and community settings. However, there is marked geographical variation in MRSA burden owing to several factors, including differences in local infection control practices and ...
