The Progressive Intercontinental Spread of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus

1 Jan 1997

Abstract excerpt

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus was initially detected in Europe in the 1960s, soon after the introduction of methicillin. Naturally-resistant strains were isolated in some countries before the use of methicillin or related agents. These strains probably spread initially from one or more ancestral genetic clones in natural populations of S. aureus by horizontal transfer and recombination. These...
