[New plasmid resistance of Staphylococcus aureus to aminosides (gentamicin, tobramycin, amikacin].
Recently, strains of Staphylococcus aureus resistant to gentamicin, tobramycin and amikacin have been discovered in several hospitals in France. These new resistances, of two different types, are of plasmid origin and of enzyme mechanism. This study describes their current incidence.
