In a study of university students, the percentage nasal carriage of Staphylococcus aureus was 40.8% (102/250). Of the isolates, MIC(50) of methicillin was 0.5 µg/mL and MIC(90) was 1 µg/mL. Six (5.8%) isolates were methicillin-resistant and carried the mecA gene. These results suggest that community-associated methicillin-resistant S. aureus may be spreading in Brazil.
在一项针对大学生的研究中,金黄色葡萄球菌的鼻腔携带率为 40.8%(102/250)。在分离出的菌株中,耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌的 MIC(50)为 0.5μg/mL,MIC(90)为 1μg/mL。有 6 株(5.8%)分离株为耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌,携带 mecA 基因。这些结果表明,社区相关性耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌可能正在巴西传播。
