Emergence of Oxacillin Resistance in Stealth Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Due to mecA Sequence Instability

23 May 2019

Abstract excerpt

Staphylococcus aureus strains that possess a mecA gene but are phenotypically susceptible to oxacillin and cefoxitin (OS-MRSA) have been recognized for over a decade and are a challenge for diagnostic laboratories. The mechanisms underlying the discrepancy vary from isolate to isolate.
