Two hundred and one strains of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from in-patients and out-patients were examined for sensitivity to antibiotics, heavy-metal ions and ethidium bromide and for phage-typing pattern. Heavy-metal ion resistance was less frequent than reported in previous studies and was as frequent in penicillinase non-producing as producing strains. 'Methicillin-resistant' strains were resistance to ethidium bromide and mercury. Resistance to heavy-metal ions, including cadmium, may be becoming less common amongst clinical isolates of S. aureus.
对从住院患者和门诊患者中分离出的201株金黄色葡萄球菌进行了抗生素、重金属离子和溴化乙锭敏感性以及噬菌体分型模式检测。重金属离子耐药性的出现频率低于先前研究报道，在不产生青霉素酶和产生青霉素酶的菌株中出现频率相同。“耐甲氧西林”菌株对溴化乙锭和汞耐药。包括镉在内的重金属离子耐药性在金黄色葡萄球菌临床分离株中可能正变得不那么常见。
