Abstract
ABSTRACT
Fluoroquinolone- and methicillin-resistant
Staphylococcus pseudintermedius
isolates harbor two new staphylococcal cassette chromosome
mec
(SCC
mec
) elements that belong to class A, allotype 3 (SCC
mec
II-III), and to the new allotype 5 (SCC
mec
VII). Analysis of the complete nucleotide sequences of the topoisomerase loci
gyrB

gyrA
and
grlB
/
grlA
revealed mutations involved in fluoroquinolone resistance.
