Abstract excerpt
In 2018, we isolated multidrug-resistant α-haemolytic streptococci TP1632 from the blood of a 34-year-old patient with bacteraemia. This study aimed to characterise α-haemolytic streptococci TP1632 and elucidate its multidrug resistance mechanisms. TP1632 was characterised by whole genome sequencing and biochemical testing. Based on the genome sequence, digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) and average nucleotide...
