TI  - Surface properties of cells of some methicillin-resistant strains of 
      Staphylococcus aureus.
PG  - 974-9
AB  - Methicillin-sensitive (MS) cells of Staphylococcus aureus had a minimum 
      electrophoretic mobility at pH 4.5, whereas methicillin-resistant (MR) strains 
      showed only a slight plateau effect. Trypsin removed the trough effect of the MS 
      Oxford strain. There was no correlation between surface lipid and resistance in 
      MR strains. Cell walls of MS strains contained much more teichoic acid than walls 
      of MR strains. Lysostaphin lysed all MR and MS strains, and mucopeptide does not 
      appear to be involved in resistance to methicillin.
