MIC of the glycopeptides to 124 MRSA determined by Etest. In (A), the values obtained for vancomycin. The seven isolates with MIC of 3.0 μg/mL were considered susceptible because all MICs were ≤2.0 μg/mL by microdilution. In (B), the results for teicoplanin. One isolate (MIC 12 μg/mL) when tested by microdilution yielded an MIC of 4.0 μg/mL (susceptible).
