Genetic determinants for cfxA expression in Bacteroides strains isolated from human infections

4 Sept 2008

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To identify genetic determinants that determine beta-lactamase expression in Bacteroides strains isolated from human infections. METHODS: Beta-lactam susceptibility and beta-lactamase enzyme expression were characterized in selected strains. Beta-lactamase genes and surrounding regions were analysed by PCR, inverse PCR and Southern hybridization. RESULTS: High resistance to penicillins and...
