A persistent antimicrobial resistance pattern and limited methicillin-resistance-associated genotype in a short-term Staphylococcus aureus carriage isolated from a student population.

Abstract excerpt

The aim of the present study was to assess and compare the antimicrobial susceptibility pattern against a panel of antibiotics and molecular and methicillin resistance-associated genotypes of 120 carriage S. aureus isolates previously isolated from a student population at two isolation events within a one-month interval. The antibiotic susceptibility of isolates was determined using the Kirby-Bauer disc-diffusion...
