Abstract

The constitutive MLSB phenotype among the isolates was found to be 16.9% in MRSA and 3.6% MSSA [Table 1] and [Figure 1]. [...]both the constitutive and inducible resistance phenotypes were found to be significantly higher in MRSA isolates as compared to MSSA (P < 0.03 and P < 0.02, respectively by Chi-square test).
