Investigation of the Genetic Basis of Tetracycline Resistance in Staphylococcus aureus from Pakistan

2013-02-25

Abstract excerpt

Purpose: To determine the prevalence and genetic basis of tetracycline resistance in Staphylococcus aureus.Methods: One hundred and thirty (130) clinical isolates of S. aureus were collected from Khyber Teaching Hospital, Peshawar, Pakistan. Susceptibility to antibiotics (doxycycline, tetracycline and minocycline) was determined by Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) evalu...
