VanA-Type MRSA (VRSA) Emerged in Surface Waters
Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2016 Due to the widespread occurrence of mecA-encoded methicillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), treatment of staphylococcal infections is shifted to glycopeptide antibiotics like vancomycin and teicoplanin. The selective pressure of glycopeptides has eventually led to the emergence of staphylococci with increased resistance.
