  • Title: "Australian" methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in a London hospital?
    Author: Townsend DE, Ashdown N, Bradley JM, Pearman JW, Grubb WB.
    Journal: Med J Aust; 1984 Sep 15; 141(6):339-40. PubMed ID: 6503819.
    Abstract:
    The Royal Free Hospital in London has experienced the spread of a phage 85 methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). An analysis of a sample has demonstrated that the plasmids carried by these strains, and the type and location of their drug-resistance determinants, are similar to those of MRSA strains which have been causing problems in some Australian hospitals.
