Induction of mecA by ceftobiprole and oxacillin in 18 methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus clinical isolates with various SCCmec cassettes was examined using reverse transcriptase PCR. The magnitude of mecA induction, 3- to 65-fold for ceftobiprole and 2- to 69-fold for oxacillin, did not correlate with ceftobiprole MICs (or=256 microg/ml. No correlation between magnitude of induction and SCCmec type was found.
