(B) S. haemolyticus (ermA ermC msrA); (C) S. epidermidis (ermA), demonstrating a “double zone” of growth around the clindamycin disk; (D) S. aureus (ermA) showing a double-zone of growth and blunting of the outer clindamycin zone (discernible at 15 and 20 mm). (E and F) Positive disk induction test indicating inducible lincosamide resistance. Flattening of the clindamycin inhibition zone adjacent to the erythromycin disk is easily discernible at 15 and 20 mm (disks placed by hand), as well as at 26 mm.
