Vancomycin Heteroresistance and Methicillin-Resistant<i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>

21 Jan 2009

Abstract excerpt

Heteroresistance refers to the presence, within a larger population of fully antimicrobial-susceptible microorganisms, of subpopulations with lesser susceptibility. This phenomenon has been described in a wide range of microorganisms, but much recent attention has been directed toward its expression in Staphylococcus aureus . Although it has long been known that resistance to methicillin is characteristically...
