Abstract:
Objective To understand the resistance, molecular charac-teristics of oxacillin susceptible methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus au-reus ( OS-MRSA) strains isolated 2011-2012 in China.Methods A total of 297 methicillin -resistant Staphylococcus aureus ( MRSA ) were collected in the Ministry of Health National Antimicrobial Resistance Sur-veillance Net program and the susceptibility test were performed by agar dilution method.All the oxacillin-susceptible MRSA strains were con-firmed to be Staphylococcus aureus by detecting nuc gene.The molecular typing methods included SCCmec and spa typing.Results A total of 14 isolates ( 4.9%) were oxacillin susceptible methicillin-resistant Staphy-lococcus aureus among 288 MRSA isolates and most of them were from se-cretion (50%, 7/14) and blood (28.6%, 4/14).The susceptibility rate to gentamicin, amikacin, rifampicin and trimethroprim/sulfamethox-azole was more than 90% and the rate to quinolones, tetracycline and chloramphenicol was about 80%, 28.6%, 28.6%, respectively.Moreo-ver, the resistance rate to erythromycin, azithromycin and clindamycin was more than 90%.PCR revealed that 14 isolates were Staphylococcus aureus and mecA positive and the most predominant clone was SCCmecⅤ-spat437 (42.9%,6/14).Conclusion The most predominant clone of the OS-MRSA isolates in China was SCCmecⅤ-spat437; most of OS-MRSA isolates were susceptible to the majority of antibacterial agents except macrolides, tetracycline and chloramphenicol.
