Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Dependence on linezolid was recently described as significant growth acceleration of linezolid-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis (LRSE) isolates upon linezolid exposure. We investigated the possible contribution of linezolid dependence to LRSE dissemination in Greece. METHODS: Linezolid resistance rates were estimated in six tertiary hospitals located throughout Greece between 2011 and 2013....
