Non-specific and specific mechanisms of adherence have been examined in two collections of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Determination of hydrophobicity by salt aggregation, hydrophobicity indices and of adherence to the extra-cellular matrix proteins fibronectin, vitronectin, laminin and collagen type 1 have failed to reveal any correlation with phage-type, plasmid profile or antibiogram. Further, the strain collections, made over a period of years in two countries, differ markedly in their adherence characteristics; MRSA are heterogeneous in this respect. Such heterogeneity may explain the polarization of views on the epidemicity or 'virulence' of MRSA. With the exception of adherence to collagen a small group of methicillin sensitive S. aureus had characteristics intermediate between the two groups of MRSA.
