Abstract excerpt
Staphylococcus aureus isolate, WBG1022, was resistant to penicillin, kanamycin, neomycin, streptomycin, chloramphenicol, trimethoprim, cadmium, and ethidium bromide and harbored plasmids of 34.5, 24.5, 4.4, 3.2, and 2.6 kilobases. The plasmids were transferred in mixed-culture transfer and conjugation experiments. No resistance phenotype was associated with the 2.6-kb plasmid. The 3.2-kb and 4.4-kb plasmids...
