Group A <i>Streptococcus</i> antibiotic tolerance in necrotizing fasciitis

2022-08-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objectives</h4> Group A Streptococcus (GAS) necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a difficult-to-treat bacterial infection associated with high morbidity and mortality despite extensive surgery and targeted antibiotic treatment. Bacteria surviving prolonged antibiotic exposure without displaying genetic resistance, so-called persisters, are associated with difficult-to-treat infections, such as GAS-NF. In the presen...
