Penicillinase producing S. aureus, resistant to penicillin, susceptible to methicillin/cefoxitin, erythromycin and gentamicin.
Non multiple resistant (NMR) MRSA, resistant to penicillin, methicillin/cefoxitin, erythromycin, susceptible to co-trimoxazole.
Penicillinase-negative non multiple resistant (NMR) MRSA on Sensitest agar, susceptible to erythromycin and tetracycline, resistant to methicillin/cefoxitin, and appears susceptible to penicillin and oxacillin. Report as R/ Pen, Met.
