A preliminary study of mecA gene expression and methicillin resistance in staphylococci isolated from the human oral cavity

Sri Lankan Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2019
Introduction: Staphylococci are common human commensals that acquire methicillin resistance via the mecA gene. Methicillin resistance in staphylococci from various clinical sources has been assessed using cefoxitin disc diffusion test (CDDT) and PCR ...

Non-susceptibility trends among methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci isolated from blood cultures [PDF]

Archives of Biological Sciences, 2014
Coagulase-negative staphylococci are a significant cause of hospital-acquired bacteremias. There is an increase of infections induced by methicillin-resistant strains, with growing resistance to other antibiotics.
