In outbreaks of synovitis and dermatitis in chicken caused by Staphylococcus (Staph.) aureus we observed erythromycin-resistant strains. These strains belong to the host-specific variety gallinae of Staph. aureus or can not be alloted to one of the known host-specific varieties. The macrolide-resistance-determinant is not carried by a plasmid, presumably it is located on the chromosome. The strains show constitutively cross-resistance to erythromycin, thurimycin, linomycinc and pristinamycin (M-L-S-phenotype). An ecological investigation in a chicken farm has shown that there is no distribution of Staph. aureus-strains from chicken to workers and no occurence of macrolide-resistance in Staph. aureus-strains from the workers.
在由金黄色葡萄球菌引起的鸡滑膜炎和皮炎暴发中，我们观察到了耐红霉素菌株。这些菌株属于金黄色葡萄球菌宿主特异性变种鸡亚种，或者无法归入已知的宿主特异性变种之一。大环内酯类抗性决定簇不是由质粒携带的，推测它位于染色体上。这些菌株对红霉素、泰乐菌素、林可霉素和 pristinamycin 表现出组成型交叉抗性（M - L - S 表型）。在一个养鸡场进行的生态学调查表明，没有从鸡身上的金黄色葡萄球菌菌株传播给工人的情况，并且工人身上的金黄色葡萄球菌菌株中没有出现大环内酯类抗性。
