Dissemination of an <i>Enterococcus</i> Inc18-Like <i>vanA</i> Plasmid Associated with Vancomycin-Resistant <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>

27 Jul 2010

Abstract excerpt

Of the 9 vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (VRSA) cases reported to date in the literature, 7 occurred in Michigan. In 5 of the 7 Michigan VRSA cases, an Inc18-like vanA plasmid was identified in the VRSA isolate and/or an associated vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) isolate from the same patient. This plasmid may play a critical role in the emergence of VRSA. We studied the geographical...
