Molecular surveillance of daptomycin DAP-resistant showed

🔵DAP-Resistance-Acquisition was linked to antiseptic rather than systemic antibiotic wound-treatment

🔵Resistance developed in all affected patients individually

-- we use to show:
-- gaining a tetracycline efflux pump by HGT is super costly for Staph aureus in low oxygen environments
-- treatment with tetracyclines prevents evolutionary adaptation to low oxygen (via gyrB mutation)

Possibly explains why tetracyclines remain useful treatments for Staph aureus infections that are often characterised by
