Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: This study was conducted to compare the mutation rates of different rpoB sites and rifampin minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) changes prior to and after rifampin therapy for biofilm-embedded methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates. METHODS: The screening of rifampin-resistant MRSA isolates, from the biofilm at Day 5 with or without exposure to the susceptible...
