In recent years, the MRSA contamination has been spreading out of the hospitals, and this is coursing a new social problem. It has been noticing especially for the aged people in the welfare institutions. It would cause a fatal result if the high-risk aged, whose immunity against illness was decreasing considerably, would be infected with the Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The author has been considering how to clear this problem without using chemotherapeutic agent. Probably, it will be significant to decrease MRSA contamination by controlling the microbe environment of the aged who carries the MRSA. For example, the MRSA could be replaced by coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS). As the fundamental investigations, the survey was carried out in some welfare facilities, which have obtained consent of a collaborated research. The germs from nasal cavities were cultivated on the culture medium for screening of MRSA, then medicine-susceptibility, and physiological examination, etc. were carried out. As a result, it was found six in a total of 26 persons were MRSA germ carriers.
