Methicillin-Susceptible, Vancomycin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Brazil. Emerg Infect Dis. 2015 Oct;21(10):1844-8.http://hdl.handle.net/11447/1209http://dx.doi.org/10.3201/eid2110.141914We report characterization of a methicillin-susceptible, vancomycin-resistant bloodstream isolate of Staphylococcus aureus recovered from a patient in Brazil. Emergence of vancomycin resistance in methicillin-susceptible S. aureus would indicate that this resistance trait might be poised to disseminate more rapidly among S. aureus and represents a major public health threat.5en-USStaphylococcus aureusbacteriaantimicrobial resistancemethicillin susceptibilityvancomycin resistancebacterial infectionsBrazilArtículo
