Abstract The study on the effect of acquired resistance to mercury on the phage sensitivity pattern of Staphylococcus aureus and its adherence to buccal epithelial cells showed increased lag period in growth and inverse relationship between the mercury resistance and cell wall teichoic acid, protein A and binding of cells to normal humal buccal cells. The phage pattern was found to change with the development of mercury resistance.
