General description

Lithium mupirocin is isolated from Pseudomonas fluorescens. At lower concentrations, it has bacteriostatic characteristics, while at higher concentrations it is bacteriocidal. Mupirocin is active against gram-positive bacteria such as Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Lactobacilli, Lactococci, Streptococci and Leuconostocs. Mupirocin has been used to study mupirocin resistance in Mycoplasma bacteria. Mupirocin inhibits the isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase, which finally results in inhibition of protein and RNA synthesis. Mupirocin lithium salt is freely soluble in water.

Application

Lithium mupirocin supplement is used for selective enumeration of Bifidobacteria from fermented milk products along with the TOS-propionate agar according to ISO 29981:2010 and IDF 220:2010

Mupirocin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus results from changes in the target enzyme, isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase (IRS). Twelve strains of S. aureus comprising four susceptible (MICs < or = 4 micrograms/ml), four intermediate level-resistant (MICs between 8 and 256 micrograms/ml), and four

Antibiotic irrigations are occasionally used during endoscopic sinus surgery when gross mucosal infection is present. These irrigations are thought to flush out pathogenic bacteria and decrease the bacterial load within the mucosal surfaces. This treatment, however, has not been studied
Staph aureus has long been recognized as being more prevalent in cultures from patients with chronic rhinosinusitis(CRS) compared to those with acute rhinosinusitis.
