Prevalence, mechanisms and comparison of detection methods of fosfomycin resistance in <i>E. coli</i> from urinary tract infections

2017-12-14

Abstract excerpt

As numbers of bacterial isolates resistant to first line antibiotics rise there has been a revival in the use of older drugs such as fosfomycin. Fosfomycin is a cell wall inhibitor with a unique mode of action, increasingly used in the treatment of urinary tract infections.
