Genomic and Phenotypic Analysis of Linezolid-Resistant <i>Staphylococcus epidermidis</i> in a Tertiary Hospital in Innsbruck, Austria

Whole genome sequencing is a useful tool to monitor the spread of resistance mechanisms in bacteria. In this retrospective study, we investigated genetic resistance mechanisms, sequence types (ST) and respective phenotypes of linezolid-resistant <i>Staphylococcus epidermidis</i> (LRSE, &...
