Abstract excerpt

The aims of this study were to evaluate the resistance patterns and serotypes/groups of penicillin non-susceptible pneumococci (PNSP) in Finland, and to determine phenotypes and resistance mechanisms of the erythromycin-resistant isolates. A total of 1190 PNSP were collected during 1996-2000 in Finland. The MICs of 18 antimicrobials were determined by the agar plate dilution method, and PCR was used to study the...
