Identifying the effect of vancomycin on health care–associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains using bacteriological and physiological media

The evolving antibiotic-resistant behavior of health care-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (HA-MRSA) USA100 strains are of major concern. They are resistant to a broad class of antibiotics such as macrolides, aminoglycosides, fluoroquinolones, and many more.The selection of appropriate antibiotic susceptibility examination media is very important. Thus, we use bacteriological (cation-adjusted Mueller-Hinton broth) as well...
