Download Lecture Overview
00:00 Now, let us see the antibiotic resistance profile in Staphylococcus aureus. 00:09 On this table, we are giving you the antibiotic resistance profile of 37 Staphylococcus aureus. 00:18 So, 97% of the strains were resistant to penicillin and 37 to tetracycline, and 18% were methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus, and 4% were resistant to erythromycin, 24 to clindamycin and 13 to gentamicin, and so on and so on. So chloramphenicol is still active and also co-trimoxazole.
