Abstract excerpt

Between January and December 1999, in Hippokration General Hospital, Thessaloniki, Greece, a large proportion of the methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates (34.4%) exhibited susceptibility to virtually all alternative non-beta-lactam antibiotics, including tobramycin. Twenty-five of them were selected randomly for further testing; all belonged to a unique genotype and were characterized as...
