[The cost of antibiotic resistance: analysis and consequences].

Pathologie-biologie - 1 Apr 2012

Kempf I, Zeitouni S

Abstract excerpt

Antimicrobial resistance, either by mutation or acquisition of resistance determinants harbored by mobile genetic elements, may confer a biological cost for the bacteria. This biological cost can be evaluated by comparing the resistant mutant to the wild susceptible strain, in the absence of antibiotic selection. This fitness cost can affect the growth rate in vitro or the survival in the host or in the...
