Linezolid Resistance in Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus in Korea: High Rate of False Resistance to Linezolid by the VITEK 2 System
21 Aug 2019
Abstract excerpt
As various linezolid resistance mechanisms have been identified in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), we investigated the molecular characteristics of MRSA with elevated linezolid minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs), using the VITEK 2 system (bioMrieux, Marcy-l'toile, France). Twenty-seven MRSA isolates from 14 patients exhibiting linezolid MICs 8 g/mL were examined by broth microdilution...
