Antimicrobial Resistance Profiles of Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci in Community-Based Healthy Individuals in Germany.

PMID 34222184 · 2021

The study identified several AMR genes in commensal CoNS from healthy individuals in Germany, including mecA, tetK/L, tetM, ermA, ermC, ermB, fusB, fusC, aac(6')/aph(2"), cat194, fexB, and spc. These genes were associated with resistance to methicillin, tetracycline, erythromycin, fusidic acid, gentamicin, chloramphenicol, florfenicol, and spectinomycin.
