Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To determine the etiological cause of a food-borne outbreak of scarlet fever in adults. METHODS: Swabs from the throats of the patients and asymptomatic control were cultured on blood agar plates individually. Biochemical identification of all isolates was performed with a VITEX automated system. Antibiotic susceptibility was examined by using the Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method. emm gene and...
