Evidence of antimicrobial resistance-conferring genetic elements among pneumococci isolated prior to 1974

24 Jul 2013

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Antimicrobial resistance among pneumococci has greatly increased over the past two to three decades. Resistance to tetracycline (tet(M)), chloramphenicol (cat) and macrolides (erm(B) and/or mef(A/E)) is generally conferred by acquisition of specific genes that are associated with mobile genetic elements, including those of the Tn916 and Tn5252 families. The first tetracycline-, chloramphenicol- and...
