A Combined Phenotypic-Genotypic Predictive Algorithm for In Vitro Detection of Bicarbonate: β-Lactam Sensitization among Methicillin-Resistant <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> (MRSA)

Antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) is routinely used to establish predictive antibiotic resistance metrics to guide the treatment of bacterial pathogens. Recently, a novel phenotype termed “bicarbonate (NaHCO<sub>3</sub>)-responsiveness” was identified in a relatively high freque...
