Increase in the rate of azithromycin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates carrying the erm(B) and mef(A) genes in Taiwan, 2006–2010

1 Dec 2014

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: This study investigated the molecular characteristics of azithromycin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae in Taiwan. METHODS: A total of 486 non-duplicate isolates of azithromycin-resistant S. pneumoniae recovered from various clinical sources of patients treated at 22 different hospitals in Taiwan from 2006 to 2010. The presence of erm(B) and mef(A) genes using duplex PCR, multilocus sequence typing...
