First report of a linezolid-resistant MRSA (methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus) isolated from a dog with a severe bilateral otitis in Portugal

The widespread use of antimicrobials has lead to the emergence of resistant bacteria to one or more antibiotic, including new drugs like linezolid. This antimicrobial is the first of the oxazolidinone group and soon after its approval in 2000, linezolid-resistant MRSA and linezolid vancomycin-resist...
