Macrolide resistance in Streptococcus pneumoniae in Hong Kong.

Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy - 1 May 2001

Ip M, Lyon D J, Yung R W, Chan C, Cheng A F

Abstract excerpt

Erythromycin resistance rates among penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae were 38 and 92% among penicillin-intermediate and -resistant S. pneumoniae isolates from Hong Kong, respectively, and 27% (43 of 158) of the isolates showed the MLS(B) phenotype, and the majority carried the ermB gene; 73% (115 of 158) displayed the M phenotype, and all possessed the mef gene. The MLS(B) phenotype was predominant...
