Characterization of the genetic basis of antibiotic resistance in Clostridium difficle

1 Jan 1994

Abstract excerpt

By using dot blot hybridization, 69 of 102 Clostridium difficile isolates (68%) from the United States and other countries hybridized with at least one of nine DNA probes for erythromycin (Erm), tetracycline (Tet) or chloramphenicol (Cat) resistance determinants. The distribution of individual determinants in descending order of frequency was: Tet M, 32%; Erm Q, 25%; Erm FS, 18%; Tet P, 15%; Tet K, 15%; Cat P,...
