Detection of Antibiotics-resistant Genes in Meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus / 中华医院感染学杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To investigate the antimicrobial-resistant genes in meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA).METHODS Forty strains of MRSA were clinically isolated.Nine kinds of antimicrobial-resistant genes were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction(PCR).RESULTS The positive rates of mecA,aac(6′)/aph(2′)and tetM were all 100.0%.The positive rates of ermA/B/C,aph(3′)-Ⅲ,qacA/B,PVL and ant(4′,4″) were 82.5%,67.5%,45.0%,10.0% and 2.5%,respectively.CONCLUSIONS There are higher positive percentages of relevant resistance genes in MRSA isolates clinically.MRSA can induce clone transmition in hospital which should pay,and attention to the disinfection and isolation.
