Rapid Detection of mecA -Positive and mecA -Negative Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci by an Anti-Penicillin Binding Protein 2a Slide Latex Agglutination Test

1 Jun 2000

Abstract excerpt

A rapid slide latex agglutination (LA) test, MRSA-Screen (Denka Seiken Co., Niigata, Japan), which detects PBP 2a, was tested for its ability to differentiate between mecA-positive and -negative coagulase-negative staphylococci. A total of 463 isolates from 13 species were included in the study. The mecA gene was detected by PCR, and the oxacillin MIC was determined by the agar dilution method according to the...
