Abstract excerpt
AIMS: To evaluate phenotypic resistance to macrolides-lincosamides and streptogramin B (MLSB ) antibiotics and to determine their localization as well as transferability of erythromycin resistance genes in enterococcal isolates of naturally fermented food-Idli batter. METHODS AND RESULTS: Diverse MLSB phenotypes observed among the enterococcal spp. (n = 32) were analysed through double disc and triple disc test....
