We have been continuing the survey of the Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) pollution situation in a welfare facility, where the elderly people, having worries of independent lives, had been staying because of advanced ages and physical inconvenience. It was already reported that about twenty percent of the residents are MRSA germ carriers in the nasal cavity. A certain method should be established so that MRSA germ carriers do not show symptoms of a MRSA infection. In order to obtain the basic data, a follow-up survey of the ecology change in the Staphylococcus soecies was conducted. Consequently, MRSA is no longer detected from those who were MRSA germ carriers in the nasal cavity now, or the colony of MRSA decreased sharply, and it had changed to coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS). This suggests that the composition of staphylococcus species in a nasal cavity may be changeable, and that the substitution of MRSA to CNS would be possible.
