Abstract excerpt
AIMS: To investigate the erythromycin resistance patterns and mechanism for Campylobacter isolates in China. METHODS AND RESULTS: The minimum inhibitory concentrations of erythromycin on 858 Chinese Campylobacter isolates were analysed. PCR and DNA sequencing were used to identify mutations in the 23S rRNA and the presence of the ermB gene in the 158 erythromycin resistance isolates (18·4%). About 83% (131/158)...
