SCCmec, staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec; ENR, enrofloxacin; KAN, kanamycin; OXA, oxacillin; AMP, ampicillin; SE, staphylococcal enterotoxin; MIC, minimal inhibitory concentration.
*Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus schleiferi isolates (OXA MICs ≥ 0.5) are represented by shading; †MICs to OXA were determined by broth microdilution method as described in Materials and Methods (the values in bold are greater than or equal to 0.5).
