Molecular detection and evaluation of resistance of Mycoplasma Pneumoniae to macrolide (Erythromycin) due to mutation in the 23S rRNA gene among Iranian Patients with respiratory infections

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Objective: </bold><italic>Mycoplasma pneumoniae</italic> is a common cause of community-acquired pneumonia. The global increased resistance of <italic>M. pneumoniae</italic> strains to macrolide (ML) has become a worrisome health problem. The widespread use of these drugs has led to increased rate of reported ML-resistant <italic>M. pneumoniae</italic> (MRMP) throughout the world....
