WGS analysis of a penicillin-resistant Neisseria meningitidis strain containing a chromosomal ROB-1 β-lactamase gene
6 Sept 2018
Abstract excerpt
Objectives: Neisseria meningitidis is rarely penicillin resistant. We describe WGS analysis of a penicillin-resistant N. meningitidis collected from a case of invasive meningococcal disease. Methods: Serogrouping, serotyping and serosubtyping were performed with specific antibodies. β-Lactamase was detected by nitrocefin. MICs were determined by Etest and agar dilution. Sequencing of N. meningitidis genomes was...
