Insights Into the Evolution of Staphylococcus aureus Daptomycin Resistance From an in vitro Bioreactor Model

The extensive use of daptomycin for treating complex methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infections has led to the emergence of daptomycin-resistant strains. Although genomic studies have identified mutations associated with daptomycin resistance, they have not necessarily provided insight i...
