Plasmid heterogeneity and identification of a Tn5281-like element in clinical isolates of high-level gentamicin-resistant Enterococcus faecium isolated in the UK

1 May 1999

Abstract excerpt

Ten clinical isolates of high-level gentamicin-resistant (HLGR) Enterococcus faecium, collected from six hospitals throughout the UK, were studied to determine whether HLGR was attributed to widespread dissemination of a single plasmid or whether different plasmid types were implicated in the dissemination of this phenotype. HLGR was attributed to the presence of the AAC6'-APH2" bifunctional aminoglycoside...
