Abstract excerpt

In this study, we determined the accuracy of phenotypic tests (cefoxitin agar dilution, 30 microg-cefoxitin and 1 microg-oxacillin disks) to detect the oxacillin resistance/mecA gene among coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) isolates. The presence of the mecA gene was detected by PCR technique (gold standard). A total of 176 CoNS isolates from blood of hospitalized patients were evaluated. Of these, 138...
