摘要：

Swab inoculation of oxacillin agar screen plates was compared with drop inoculation for detection of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. The poor sensitivity of the swab method (59%) was related to heteroresistance of the S. aureus isolates. We recommend the drop method (100% sensitivity) because interpretation of results was significantly easier, making it more reliable.
