Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Antimicrobial resistance is a global concern, linking bacterial genotype and phenotype. However, variability in antibiotic susceptibility within bacterial populations can lead to misclassification. Heteroresistance exemplifies this, where isolates have subpopulations less susceptible than the main population. This study explores heteroresistance in Gram-negative bacteria, distinguishing between...
