Abstract excerpt
The steps by which Escherichia coli strains harboring mutations related to fosfomycin (FOS) resistance arise and spread during urinary tract infections (UTIs) are far from being understood. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of urine, pH, and anaerobiosis on FOS activity against a set of isogenic strains carrying the most prevalent chromosomal mutations conferring FOS resistance (ΔuhpT, ΔglpT,...
