| Research Abstract |
The clinical macrolide(ML)-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains showed a thickened cell wall when compared morphologically with the clinical ML-sensitive S. aureus strains. We also demonstrated that gentamycin-resistant clinical isolates of S. aureus exhibited a thickened cell wall. These results strongly suggest that a thickened cell wall is a common ultrastractural characteristic of protein synthesis inhibitor antibiotics-resistant S. aureus clinical strains.
