*The drug susceptibility of Rothia mucilaginosain the present case was determined by using disk diffusion test according to the 2011 Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (M100-S21) criteria for staphylococci. The vancomycin susceptibility was determined by E-test because the disk test is not available for differentiating among vancomycin-susceptible, -intermediate, and -resistant isolates of Staphylococcus spp.
Abbreviations: S,susceptible; R,resistant.
