H.YR 1993 T1 Probes for the study of mupirocin resistance in staphylococci JF Journal of Medical Microbiology, VO 39 IS 6 SP 446 OP 449 DO https://doi.org/10.1099/00222615-39-6-446 PB Microbiology Society, SN 1473-5644, AB Summary Probes constructed from a 4.05-kb EcoR1 digest fragment of a mupirocin resistance plasmid and a 751-bp internal part of this fragment hybridised with DNA from all of 36 independent high-level mupirocin-resistant staphylococci tested from seven centres; most were Staphylococcus aureus. In most instances the probes detected an EcoR1 digest fragment of approximately 4 kb. Probes did not hybridise to DNA from low-level resistant strains, nor from strains sensitive to mupirocin., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/jmm/10.1099/00222615-39-6-446
