Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To obtain the statistics of the resistance of Staphylococcus spp to 12 antibacterial agents. METHODS The clinical non-repeated isolates of Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase negative Staphylococcus(CNS) were collected in September 2004 in 13 hospitals of Anhui Province.According to National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards(NCCLS) of America(2004),agar dilution method was performed to determine the MICs of 12 antimicrobial agents against the isolates. RESULTS All S.aureus and 92.9% of CNS were resistant to penicillin respectively.Multi-resistance to antibiotics such as macrolides,and fluoroquinolones were found in these strains,and all the isolates of Staphylococcus spp were susceptible to vancomycin. CONCLUSIONS Staphylococcus spp exhibit some degrees of resistance to antimicrobial agents in Anhui Province.Therefore,the drug resistance of surveillance must be imposed,and we must emphasize on reasonable option of antimicrobial agents in clinical therapy in our area.
