Abstract
The presence of antimicrobial resistance in CoNS
is mainly due to the commonly used antimicrobial
agents such as oxacillin, ciprofloxacin, erythromycin,
clindamycin and methicillin for the
treatment of Gram’s positive bacteria.This
could pose public health threat and it may act
as a reservoir for the horizontal transfer of
antimicrobial resistance.
