It was found that polyoxotungstates (POTs) such as undecatungstocobaltosilicate ([SiW 1 1 O 3 9 Co] 6 - ) greatly sensitize strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) to β-lactam antibiotics by reducing the expression of penicillin-binding proteins. In this report, it is shown that MRSA strains with an extremely high resistance to β-lactams were easily detected by adding a POT to the growth medium. When such a compound was mixed with the culture medium, the growth inhibition zone formed around a paper disk containing a β-lactam antibiotic was significantly enlarged. However, colonies appeared inside the inhibition zone if the MRSA strain was highly resistant to the antibiotic.
