Methicillin-resistant septal peptidoglycan synthesis in a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strain [PDF]
In a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strain, electron micrographs showed that cell wall septa continued to be formed in the presence of methicillin, although they became distorted and enlarged. The results indicated that peripheral cell wall synthesis was inhibited.

ABSTRACT Introduction Staphylococcus species are frequently isolated from the sinonasal niche of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) patients. While Staphylococcus aureus is often associated with recalcitrant CRS, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus lugdunensis are largely deemed commensal.

Impact of time to appropriate therapy on mortality in patients with vancomycin-intermediate Staphylococcus aureus infection [PDF]
Despite the increasing incidence of vancomycin-intermediate Staphylococcus aureus (VISA) infections, few studies have examined the impact of delay in receipt of appropriate antimicrobial therapy on outcomes in VISA patients.

Prevalence of methicillin resistant coagulase negative staphylococci in a tertiary care hospital
Background and Objectives: Presence of methicillin and multidrug resistance has associated coagulase negative staphylococci (CNS) with high morbidity and mortality worldwide. The present study was carried out to study the susceptibility pattern of CNS to

Hypericin enhances β-lactam antibiotics activity by inhibiting sarA expression in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. [PDF]
Bacteremia is a life-threating syndrome often caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Thus, there is an urgent need to develop novel approaches to successfully treat this infection.
