Two chromogenic media for the detection of MRSA were compared: BBL CHROMagar MRSA II (BD) and MRSA ID agar (bioMérieux). Following overnight nonselective enrichment, 1,919 screening samples were inoculated on both chromogenic agars. After 24 h, the sensitivities of both media were high and comparable. Both media showed an important decrease in specificity after 48 h of incubation (decreases of 8% for MRSA II and 10% for MRSA ID), but MRSA II was significantly more specific at both time points.
两种用于检测耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌（MRSA）的显色培养基进行了比较：BBL CHROMagar MRSA II（BD）和 MRSA ID 琼脂（bioMérieux）。在过夜非选择性增菌后，将 1919 份筛查样本接种到两种显色培养基上。24 小时后，两种培养基的敏感性均较高且相当。两种培养基在孵育 48 小时后特异性显著降低（MRSA II 降低 8%，MRSA ID 降低 10%），但 MRSA II 在两个时间点的特异性均显著更高。
