Addition of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) to standard antimicrobial susceptibility testing medium reveals certain methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA) strains to be highly susceptible to β-lactams. We investigated the prevalence of this phenotype (NaHCO3responsiveness) to two β-lactams among 58 clinical MRSA bloodstream isolates. Of note, ∼75% and ∼36% of isolates displayed the NaHCO3responsiveness phenotype to cefazolin (CFZ) and oxacillin (OXA), respectively. |
