The prevalence and mechanisms of vancomycin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus.

Annual review of microbiology - 1 Jan 2002

Walsh Timothy R, Howe Robin A

Abstract excerpt

The emergence of Staphylococcus aureus resistant to vancomycin has caused considerable concern. Such strains are currently rare, although they have been isolated from many areas of the world. Considerable controversy surrounds strains of S. aureus displaying heterogeneous resistance to vancomycin regarding their definition and methods for detection. This has led to considerable variance in estimates of prevalence...
