Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Mycoplasma genitalium resistance to antibiotic treatments is increasing, with very limited treatment alternatives on the horizon. Surveillance via sequencing of multiple M. genitalium loci would allow: monitoring of known antibiotic resistance mutations, associations between resistance/treatment failure and specific mutations, and strain typing for epidemiological purposes. In this study we assessed...
