Mechanism of resistance to some cephalosporins in Staphylococcus aureus

Mechanism of resistance to some cephalosporins in Staphylococcus aureus

M Kono et al. Antimicrob Agents Chemother. 1983 Jun.

Abstract

The mechanism of resistance to some cephalosporins in Staphylococcus aureus strains was investigated with high-pressure liquid chromatography and nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry. Drug inactivation by penicillinase was found to be the main mechanism of resistance to cefazolin, cephaloridine, and cephalothin in S. aureus.
