Objective: To discuss the possible mechanism of drug resistance transmission between Staphylococcus and Escherichia coli.

Methods: The chloramphenicol resistance plasmid of Staphylococcus aureus was extracted to transform the sensitive Escherichia coli, and the drug-resistant Escherichia coli were screened by drug sensitivity test.

Results: The drug-resistant Escherichia coli were successfully obtained.

Conclusion: Staphylococcus may have a natural shuttle plasmid of drug resistance, which can transform Escherichia coli under specific conditions.
