title: [Drug resistant coagulase-positive staphylococci strains in food].
abstract: From the 1572 food samples, examined in Microbiology Department of Frozen Food Industry Research Laboratory in Lódź, 79 (5.0%) coagulase-positive staphylococci strains were isolated. All the strains were sensitive to vancomycin, gentamycin and chloramphenicol. Only individual staphylococci strains were resistant to erythromycin (1.3%), lincomycin (2.5%) and ciprofloxacin (2.5%). 20.3% strains, isolated mainly from raw meat, were resistant to doxycycline and 6.3% to oxacillin. 38.0% of coagulase-positive staphylococci strains had positive results of cefinase test. One strain isolated from minced meat was resistant to methicillin and at the same time it was producing beta-lactamases.
