a

AMK, amikacin; AMX, amoxicillin; CEF, cephalotin; CHL, chloramphenicol; CLI, clindamycin; ENRO, enrofloxacin; ERY, erythromycin; GEN, gentamicin; KAN, kanamycin; LZD, linezolid; NIT, nitrofurantoin; OXA, oxacillin; PEN, penicillin; STR, streptomycin; SXT, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole; Q/D, quinupristin-dalfopristin; TET, tetracycline; VAN, vancomycin.

b

The MIC breakpoints (in micrograms per milliliter) determining resistance were those recommended for S. aureus in CLSI supplement M100-S16 (6) except for enrofloxacin and streptomycin, for which breakpoints of CLSI from supplement M31-S1 for bacteria from animals (3) and from the French Society for Microbiology (www.sfm.asso.fr) were used. MICs above resistance breakpoints are boldfaced.

c

Antibiotic resistance genes and their functions are as follows: erm(B), macrolides, lincosamides, and streptogramin B methylase; blaZ, β-lactamase; catpC221, chloramphenicol acetyltransferase; dfr(G), dihydrofolate reductase (trimethoprim resistance); tet(K), tetracycline efflux; aac(6′)-Ie and aph(3′)-III, aminoglycoside acetyltransferase and phosphotransferase; ant(6′)-Ia, streptomycin adenylyltransferase; sat4, streptothricin acetyltransferase; mecA, penicillin-binding protein PBP2′.

d

Inducible clindamycin resistance as determined according to CLSI guidelines (5).
