Phenotypic and genotypic characterization of linezolid resistance and the effect of antibiotic combinations on methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus clinical isolates
Abstract Background Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) causes life-threatening infections, with narrow therapeutic options including: vancomycin and linezolid. Accordingly, this study aimed to characterize phenotypically and genotypically, the most relevant means of linezolid resista...
