The Prevalence of 23S rRNA Mutations in ML-Resistant M. pneumoniae Isolates to Clarithromycin in Patients with Respiratory Infections
1 Jun 2020
Abstract excerpt
Background: Mycoplasma pneumoniae is one of the widespread causes of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). Over recent years, the widespread use of macrolides has led to the emergence of macrolide-resistant M. pneumoniae (MRMP) resulted from mutations at specific positions of domain V of the 23S rRNA gene. Methods: We collected 100 samples of throat swabs from patients with respiratory infections. After extraction...
