*MIC and MBC to triclosan are expressed as mg/L. **Polymorphic sites are indicated counting backwards from the sa-fabI start site of S. aureus Mu50 (GenBank ID: BA000017; position 1060308). Strains analysed by microarray are indicated in bold. ‡With the exception of strain QBR-102278-2095, these data have been previously reported [22].
