Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This SEM shows a strain of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria taken from a vancomycin intermediate resistant culture (VISA).
  • Under SEM, one can not tell the difference between bacteria that are susceptible or multidrug resistant, but with TEM, at least with VISA isolates one can see a thickening in the cell wall that may attribute to their reduced susceptibility to vancomycin.
