Macrolide-resistant Streptococcus pyogenes in Norway: population structure and resistance determinants.

Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy - 1 May 2006

Abstract excerpt

A 2.7% prevalence of macrolide resistance in 1,657 Norwegian clinical Streptococcus pyogenes isolates was primarily due to erm(TR) (59%) and mef(A) (20%). Four clonal complexes comprised 75% of the strains. Macrolide resistance in S. pyogenes in Norway is imported as resistant strains or locally selected in internationally disseminated susceptible clones.
