Table 2 MICs of 11 antimicrobial agents against 60 Coagulase-positive Staphylococcia isolated in this study

From: Distribution and antimicrobial resistance profiles of bacterial species in stray cats, hospital-admitted cats, and veterinary staff in South Korea

  1. The dilution ranges tested are those contained in the white area. Values above this range indicate MIC values higher than the highest concentration within the range. Values below this range indicate MIC values lower than the lowest concentration within the range. Breakpoints are employed according to VET01S document. When available, susceptible and resistance breakpoints are indicated in vertical dotted and solid lines respectively. For antibiotics without intermediate zone, a single vertical solid line is indicated. For oxacillin, breakpoint of S. aureus is indicated in vertical doubled solid line and breakpoint of S. (pseud) intermedius and S. hyicus is in vertical doubled dotted line
  2. MIC50, lowest concentration to inhibit 50% of bacteria; MIC90, lowest concentration to inhibit 90% of bacteria
  3. R Resistant, I Intermediate, S Susceptible, MIC Minimum inhibitory concentration
  4. a10 isolates from stray cats, 34 isolates from hospital-admitted cat, and 16 isolates from hospital staff
  5. bOnly CLSI breakpoint for dog isolates available
  6. cIndicates isolates numbers from stray cat, hospital-admitted cat and hospital staff, respectively
  7. dThe breakpoints derived from human breakpoints used [18]
  8. eNo CLSI breakpoint available
