Methicillin-resistant staphylococci [PDF]
Strains of staphylococci resistant to methicillin were identified immediately after introduction of this drug. Methicillin-resistant strains have unusual properties, the most notable of which is extreme variability in expression of the resistance trait.

Methicillin-resistant staphylococci [PDF]
Eighteen strains of Staph. pyogenes (nine penicillin-sensitive and nine penicillin-destroying) were passaged 40 to 50 times on Celbenin1 ditch plates. All strains developed an increase in resistance to Celbenin and eight strains (four penicillin-sensitive and four penicillin-destroying) were able to grow in 100 μg/ml.

Hospital-acquired infection with methicillin-resistant and methicillin-sensitive staphylococci [PDF]
SUMMARYIn-patients at a London hospital over one year from whom the south-east England strain of ‘epidemic’ methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was isolated were compared with in-patients with strains of methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA).

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

The Effect of Methicillin on Skin Lesions in Guinea-Pigs Caused By "Methicillin-Sensitive" and "Methicillin-Resistant" Staphylococcus Aureus [PDF]
SUMMARY The therapeutic effect of methicillin on skin lesions in guinea-pigs produced by two strains of Staphylococcus aureus showing heterogeneous resistance to methicillin, and by two strains of normal sensitivity, was compared. Methicillin was given intravenously immediately after the intradermal inoculation of staphylococci and the skin lesions ...
