Phenotypes and genotypes of erythromycin-resistant pneumococci in Italy.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Jan 2003

Montanari Maria Pia, Mingoia Marina, Cochetti Ileana, Varaldo Pietro Emanuele

Abstract excerpt

Of 120 erythromycin-resistant pneumococci isolated in Italian hospitals, 39 (32.5%) were M-type isolates, carrying the mef gene alone. The mef gene was also detected, together with erm(AM), in one constitutively resistant isolate and in five isolates of the partially inducible phenotype. Among the 45 mef-positive isolates, 25 (55.6%) carried mef(A) and 20 (44.4%) carried mef(E) as observed from PCR-restriction...
