Distribution of Genes Encoding Resistance to Macrolides, Lincosamides, and Streptogramins among Staphylococci
Tóm tắt
The relative frequency of 10 determinants of resistance to macrolides, lincosamides, and streptogramins was investigated by PCR in a series of 294 macrolide-, lincosamide-, and/or streptogramin-resistant clinical isolates of
